Re: [MacPerl] Image::Info help

[John Delacour]

Your problem is not (in this instance) with Image::Info but that you 
have not installed IO::String

Download it from here:

<http://search.cpan.org/~gaas/IO-String-1.04/>

Then in the Terminal, cd to the directory, wherever you downloaded it 
to, and do the following steps:

IO-String-1.04 jd$ perl Makefile.PL
IO-String-1.04 jd$ make
IO-String-1.04 jd$ make test
IO-String-1.04 jd$ sudo make install

I have worked with modules before (CGI.pm) but I can't really make sense
of the qw-syntax in line 1. Anyway, when I run the sript, I get an
error:
Can't parse image info: Can't locate IO/String.pm in @INC

Has anybody in the list worked with image::Info before and can give me a
hint why that is and what to do about it?
