(IMO, the only > "good" OS Microsoft ever made.) I can only report what I have noticed on the OSs that I have access to. Actually I do not know any person that runs W2K so I can not test on that. My intention was to make clear that there is a file name issue that I will not fix. Perl and all the other ports I have released during the last few years are not capable to handle SFN that use numeric tails. No one should be surprised if he use some Windows system with LFN support and he set LFN=n in his environment that the DJGPP stops working. The only exception to this rule are those Windows systems where the user has control over numeric tail generation. Neitherless all this do not explain the failure you are reporting. This implies that I am assuming that run DJGPP with LFN=y in your environment. > Djgpp works fine for me on Win2K machines, with the > exception of the documentation for Perl 5.8.8, all of > which (perldoc, info, man) is broken and useless. > (Perldoc.pm crashes w complaints of not being able to > write temporary files; and the man pages cause ntvdm.exe > to crash w "illegal memory access" if you try to read > them. As for the info pages, there aren't any.) I can read the formated man pages on all my OSs. What does ntvdm.exe make crash : man.exe or less.exe ? Regards, Juan M. Guerrero
