I am using nmake1.5, and I think I would like to use a different compiler; please make a suggestions..
I think nmake-1.5 is the old and crappy version of nmake that's readily available as a separate download on the internet - it may be the cause of your problem. Assuming you're using a version of Visual Studio compiler, you'd be better off using the version of nmake that ships with it.
Which compiler are you using at the moment ? ('nmake' is a make utility, not a compiler.)
With ActivePerl, imho, if you don't have Visual Studio 6.0, you're best to be using MinGW and dmake - though you'll possibly get good enough mileage out of the later versions of Visual Studio.
