Tim, Sorry if I confuse you, but what you like with depnds on what you want to test on.... In simple terms the following should be correct: a) 2.03 - DOS / Win 9x b) 2.03 + Charles WIn 2K/XP patches - DOS / Win 9x / Win 2K / Win XP b) 2.04 - DOS / Win 9x / Win 2K / Win XP Due to issues with Bash I have NOT updated Perl to 5.6.1 . If you are using XP then there are two choices to link against as follows 1) 2.03 + Win 2K/XP patches as proiduces by charles 2) 2.04 CVS head The files that are available from the clio site have been built with CVS head, so if you want to keep it "comaptible" (symlink issues etc) with these files then you will need to link against the CVS head. If on the other hand you rebuild all of the packages against the 2.03 + patches then you should link against the 2.03 + patches LIBC. If you want to produce an upgrade for the exisitng Perl available from Simntel then you will need to lik agaisnt the stock standard 2.03 which may not work under Win 2K/XP due to issues with 2.03 LIBC on Win 2K/XP. Hope this helps.
