Once POE's prerequisites are installed, you can do the same for POE itself. > But I think POE requires additional modules (Event and Filter::Util::Call > maybe others) that require code to be compiled (xs).

Check perlfaq8 for "How do I keep my own module/library directory?" The compiled code should be loaded fine if your ISP's Perl is compiled to support dynamic loading. This is the default, so most systems are. POE only requires Filter::Util::Call. I recommend also installing Time::HiRes. The remaining modules are only needed if you're doing specific things. > BTW How do I search the list archive ... To be honest, I'm not sure myself. -- Rocco Caputo / [EMAIL PROTECTED] / poe.perl.org / poe.sf.net
