TIA. > If you insist on a DJGPP-compiled version, there's a version of perl5.000 ftp://turnbull.sk.tsukuba.ac.jp/pub/ALPHA (or some similar path) which I compiled about 10 months ago; however, I have made only those changes which were strictly necessary, and the database stuff tends to crash & burn, so I wouldn't (in general) recommend it. I may port perl5.001 (or 5.002 if it's out then) to V2 when the final version thereof is released; if so, I'll let everyone know. For now, however, your best bet is on ftp.coast.net (or another SimTel site) in /simtel/msdos/perl/. -- Aaron Ucko (ucko AT vax1 DOT rockhurst DOT edu; finger for PGP public key) | httyp!
