Thanks a ton! Now I got past those errors & am getting something new. Here's
the output from the next step:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~/temp/Net-Telnet-3.02 -> make
'-c' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
make: *** [blib\lib\Net\.exists] Error 1
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Any ideas on this one?
Thanks!
  Michael
