Hi everybody,
I had an earlier version of perl installed on my Win98
machine and I could never get Perldoc to work. I figured
something was misconfigured, so I didn't worry about it
until I installed a newer version of perl. And guess what,
Perldoc still doesn't work, even after a completely clean
install of the new version. I get "bad command or file name"
every time I try to use it. If I type 'perdoc' I get the help screen
deatailing how to use it, but if I type 'perldoc perldoc' I get the error message as above. Any idea why this is happening?
Can you post the output of 'set' & 'perl -V'. I haven't used Win98 in a while (I use Win2k,linux,bsd), but it should work OOB. Under Win2k mine works fine, piping through groff and displayed in pretty colors with less.
Randy.
