Hi Avraham, A quick question - I realized I did not have *Perl* installed. So I installed *ActiveState Perl* right now. Also I see I need *texinfo* and *texi2any*. I was able to installed *texinfo* from here: http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/texinfo.htm. But not sure where to get *texi2any*. Can you guide me in this step?
