That's strange. Which module is not found? Since you have installed it, where is it? What is your @INC? You can see your @INC with perl -wle 'print for @INC' >With HTML::Parser it couldn't run gcc because it was not found. Then you must install it. :-) Run setup.exe and install gcc. >How do you use CPAN under cygwin? perldoc cpan To fire up the cpan shell, just type, at the cygwin shell cpan >Is there a web page that outlines how to configure CPAN for >cygwin, is that what is needed? I found it to be quite straight forward. Please be specific and tell where you run into problems. >Are others having problems and how did you fix them. We'll take one thing at a time.
