Ah, sorry. I didnt understand. Im just curious if i alter this file this will affect all "make dist" commands? Is there any chance the default could have ".bak" added in future releases? Also will the fact that some of the patterns depend on *NIX style paths be an issue on Win32? Im guessing not, but i think its worth asking. And no the version on my machine doesnt look (exactly) like either one you linked to: D:\Development>perldoc -m ExtUtils::MANIFEST.SKIP # Avoid version control files. \bRCS\b \bCVS\b ,v$ \B\.svn\b # Avoid Makemaker generated and utility files. \bMANIFEST\.bak \bMakefile$ \bblib/ \bMakeMaker-\d \bpm_to_blib$ # Avoid Module::Build generated and utility files. \bBuild$ \b_build/ # Avoid temp and backup files. ~$ \.old$ \#$ \b\.# Cheers, Yves
