You can extract the perl stuff directly from the Jaguar
installation CDs using something like the Pacifist application.
That's probably preferable to a full re-install of the OS.

Its all working now. Now using man2html, but not the perl script that
comes with it... I am still using Jerry's version hand-customized by me.
I will package up the sourcecode later today or tomorrow (the current
download still gets Jerry's original man script).
The only problem with man2htm

Jerry,
I am now using man2html 3.0.1 (available from
http://www.oac.uci.edu/indiv/ehood/man2html.html)... works quite well,
except, I haven't yet figured out the html linking other man pages bit.
Am working on it... it is something obvious that slips me.
Anyway, thanks to your manpage viewer

While good advice, that's a problem with LWP, not libnet. :)

Project Builder's man page viewer (Help menu, Open man page...) uses
rman (also known as PolyglotMan, and previous to that, RossettaMan).
It seems to handle the variously formatted man source quite well.
PB's interface to the man pages leaves much to be desired (it's on the
list!), but it giv

Greetings PK,
I seem to recall that linux man pages are kept initially in a gzip format
and as invoked get converted to an unpacked format.
You might try removing the redirection of stderr to stdout in the man
command, in fact you might even redirect it to /dev/null and see if that
helps.

The advice I've seen is to put
setenv FTP_PASSIVE true
in your .cshrc file.

Anyone know of a scriptable/automatable solution to using CPAN from behind a firewall? It just uses OSX's ftp, which doesn't really look at the proxy info in the Network control panel. I've been manually using IE to download patches and install them.

You've convinced me that overwriting 5.6 was a bad idea, and I should
fix it before I go too much further.
Any advice on the best way of doing this (simple directions please!)? I

think to avoid this problem. (Of course I can'

Dunno, maybe. If nothing is acting funny then you can leave it alone, but

Well, it's in PHP not Perl, but you might checkout:

Seriously, I don't even have php running on my iBook. And besides, I am
reinventing the wheel so I can learn.
Thanks though, for the link.
