in reply to Trying to install Storable, use nmake : does not work, ppm no option

Couple of things:

Storable isn't part of the ActiveState Win32 distribution and as far as I know, is not Win32 compatible.

Thanks davis for correcting me. I was confusing this with the Storable warnings I saw during a recent Cache::Cache build.

In regards to ppm and your proxy, set the following environmental variables on your machine:

HTTP_proxy
HTTP_proxy_user
HTTP_proxy_pass

-Nitrox

    Yes it is. It's (on my machine) in C:\Perl\site\lib\Storable.pm
    Activestate Perl 5.6.1 (Build 633).

    Is this going out live?
    No, Homer, very few cartoons are broadcast live - it's a terrible strain on the animator's wrist
