The version You mentioned is the one from the cygwin, not from activestate This is the public msi package from activestate version v5.8.4 built for MSWin32-x86-multi-thread and it comes with wperl and perl living in the same directory The facts You told make me believe, that the activestate-perl isn't within Your path at all, thus "no completion for wp" isn't really surprising. matthias -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
