I'm trying to install with the instructions in the README and I'm getting errors after I run
"perl Makefile.PS"
First it asks me my time zone then after a few lines it picks up here: (screen capture)

which aren't in the handler database already.)
- delete any other handlers for the old version of News Clipper.
Checking if your kit is complete...
Looks good
News Clipper could not determine your home directory. I tried to get your
home directory using both getpwuid and your HOME environment variable.
------------------------
So that's where I type nmake - here is the output (screen capture)
------------------------------
D:\perl modules\newsclipper\NewsClipper-1.24-os>nmake

NMAKE : fatal error U1064: MAKEFILE not found and no target specified
Stop.
----------------------------------------
So that is where I type nmake NewsClipper and it still doesn't work.
-----------------------------------------
D:\perl modules\newsclipper\NewsClipper-1.24-os>nmake NewsClipper
Microsoft (R) Program Maintenance Utility Version 6.00.8168.0

NMAKE : fatal error U1052: file 'NewsClipper' not found
Stop.
-----------------------------------------------------
I apologize if this simple. I am new to Perl and appreciate your
time and effort.
