(I thought there might have been some easily configurable option that avoided relocating/renaming, but that's fine.) Just by way of explanation: When I build a module using Inline, with the C code in a separate file, it's necessary to amend the pm file that gets sent to blib. I thought I'd do it by a perl script rather than by hand. So I run: perl makefile.pl nmake perl amend.pl nmake test nmake install (Even tried having 'amend.pl' unlink the copy in blib - which works - but then 'nmake test' puts it straight back in :-)) Thanks Ed, Michael. Cheers, Rob
