All:

I would like a perl module that I am creating to install itself into the
ActivePerl documentation TOC tree.  I have ensured that "perl
makefile.pl;nmake;nmake test;nmake dist; nmake ppd" works correctly.

I have searched all over for examples or tutorials on MakeMaker, but haven't
found any to date.  I checked several FAQ and I have RTFM (ExtUtils:: ...)
but have found nothing (that my dense mind) can discern as a clue to me
answer my questions below:

1) What settings do I change to instruct make to create HTML docs from my
.PM file?

2) What settings do I change to get PPD to install my HTML and rebuild the
ActivePerl TOC tree?

3) Is there something else that I must do to rebuild the TOC tree?  I am
guessing that it is automated, because the tree is updated when I install
modules downloaded from ActiveState.

Below is my Makefile.PL (created by h2xs):

use ExtUtils::MakeMaker;
WriteMakefile(
    'NAME'              => 'Mobile6::Tools',
    'VERSION_FROM'      => 'Tools.pm', # finds $VERSION
    'PREREQ_PM'         => {}, # e.g., Module::Name => 1.1
    ($] >= 5.005 ?    ## Add these new keywords supported since 5.005
      (ABSTRACT_FROM => 'Tools.pm', # retrieve abstract from module
       AUTHOR     => 'John Leonard <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>') : ()),
);

Many thanks!
