Hi Nigel. What you are looking for is something that would be distributed in a compiler package. There are different routes you could follow here, one being MS, another Open Source packages....
If all you need is the make program itself, here is one place to get such a program: http://www.gnu.org/directory/Software_development/Program_build_automation/m ake.html If modules would require C compilers and the likes, I'd sit down a bit and go through my options. You could go for Visual C++ or something from Borland, for example. Or you could stick to the compilers that the GNU project has. It all depends on how you want things, and what you like the packages, really. They'll all do the same, but in slightly different ways, with complete IDE's, or just command line tools. It's all your choice there. Oh yeah, almost forgot the CygWin stuff as well. In any case, enjoy, and good hunting! ;) Best Regards Anders Holm Critical Path Technical Support Engineer ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Tel USA/Canada: 1 800 353 8437 Tel Worldwide: +1 801 736 0806 E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Internet: http://support.cp.net > -----Original Message----- > From: Nigel Peck [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: 27 June 2002 11:52 > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: CPAN Modules continued > > > Please excuse the stupid question but I'm trying to get my head round > too many things at once and I could do witha quick explanation please. > > I'm trying to follow the > > perl makefile.pl > make > make test > make install > > However, I have no program on my system called make.
