Hi, I'm elated to announce the release of PXPerl 5.8.7-1! One of the most interesting new thing in 5.8.7-1 is perhaps the ability to select GCC (MinGW) to compile new modules, eg. downloaded from CPAN. Many other changes:
+ Upgraded to Perl 5.8.7 + Upgraded to Pugs 6.2.7 + Upgraded to Parrot 0.2.1 + Updated modules to their latest version + Added Module::Build + Now a ZIP package of PXPerl (no installer) is also available + Added an installation script so as to emancipate from the installer + Includes Microsoft's free nmake in case you don't have a make program + Installer can now work in quiet mode (PXPerl-5.8.7-1.exe /S) + Changed compilation flags for Intel Compiler so that executables are a bit smaller in size, and thus possibly faster + PXPerl build phase is now quite entirely automated, thanks to Perl :D + Added some useful commands for manipulating environment variables which are lacking in Windows: add_to_path/remove_from_path and set_env/delete_env >>> http://pixigreg/com/?pxperl Have a nice day, -- Grégoire Péan aka PixiGreg www.pixigreg.com [EMAIL PROTECTED]
