You need a C compiler for the "native" Windows environment (as opposed to Cygwin, see below) to build PAR::Packer, e.g. Microsoft Visual C++ or MingW32 (http://www.mingw.org). > I have installed the latest cygwin, with no joy. gcc in Cygwin can only be used to build stuff for the Cygwin environment, so it's of no use wrt your AchtiveState Perl (whic is a "native" Perl on Windows). > Also, how do I join this list?
