That seems OK considering how it is difficult to use IPC on Windows. Anyway, it would be great if the maintainer use something like Devel-AssertOS to validate if the tests should run in the host OS or not. I did that with Win32-SqlServer-DTS and got nice NA reports results in OS's that the distribution will simple not work (http://www.cpantesters.org/distro/W/Win32-SqlServer-DTS.html#Win32-SqlServer-DTS-0.09). >> 2.

I'll try that and let you know. Maybe the tutorial on CPAN smoking tests could include that (being honest, I didn't checked the POD of CPAN::Reporter::Smoker), specially the Win32::Job information. Considering my RTFM syn, I'm volunteer to update the wiki, if possible, with this information. :-) Thanks to all, Alceu Rodrigues de Freitas Junior -------------------------------------- glasswal...@yahoo.com.br --- A well-used door needs no oil on its hinges.
