There might be. But perhaps the simplest way to get you and him up to
speed with what you are trying to do would be to use something closer to
"bleedperl" or a recent snapshot. Jarkko makes these available and the
latest one was:
http:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
http:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
ftp:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
http:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
http:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
ftp:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
(these latter *.tbz files are bzip2'ed and should be avoided unless you
have bunzip2.exe on your testdrive installation). You might also want to
note the upcoming deadline:

With the above kits you could configure, build, test, and install like so:
@configure "-Dusedevel" "-Dprefix=DISK:[DIR.]" "-des"
mmk
mmk test
mmk install
Note that the PERL_SETUP.COM file will be left in the build root
(e.g. DRIVE:[PERL]).
I hope that helps.
