Here is the direct link to the info page. Lots of good details on how it works. http://search.cpan.org/~eryq/Convert-BinHex-1.119/lib/Convert/BinHex.pm Here is where you can download the source http://search.cpan.org/CPAN/authors/id/E/ER/ERYQ/Convert-BinHex-1.119.tar.gz ~~~ Hello, Thanks for all the help and info. After downloading the tarball I ran, 'perl Makefile.PL', and 'make', then 'make install', but I am not sure if this is all I need to do. When running the install from CPAN so much more seems to take place (as far as the verbose output on the terminal shows). Below is the output from tarball build. Is this everything for an install or am I missing something? Thanks again for your help. [EMAIL PROTECTED] Convert-BinHex-1.119]# perl Makefile.PL Checking if your kit is complete...
