Ok, looks like I've made a minor fool out of myself (didn't take long). I got the GD graphics library (http://www.boutell.com/gd/) mixed up with the GD module (http://search.cpan.org/search?dist=GD) A description of the latter can be found at <http://search.cpan.org/doc/LDS/GD-1.38/README>, Detlef. Also, an addendum to my question: MacPerl 5.2 came with some form of the GD module pre-compiled, but it could apparently only create GIFs, not PNGs (tell me if I'm wrong). Now, with MacPerl 5.6.1, there is no pre-compiled GD (again, tell me if I'm wrong). So I assume I'd need to compile both the GD library and the GD module? Sorry for being so vague, but as you can probably tell, I've gotten myself in quite a bit over my head. Thanks, -- Michael
