ignatz,

I feel your pain. I really do.

Well, after a hard drive failure last month, I've just recently (i.e. this week) (re)installed ActiveState's Perl, build 631.

I remember reading about PPM3 while downloading and it was quite clear in my mind you had to pay to get the extra benefits; but if you didn't pay, it would still do the job.

Also, when I fire up a MS-DOS window and run "ppm" from the command line, it runs version 2.1.5. In order to run PPM3, I've got to execute "ppm3" from the command line.

Normally I'd never state my opinion about your feelings, but you wondered if you were off base about this. Personally I don't think it's that big of a deal. But you obviously feel differently about this than I do, especially since you've already had a night to sleep on it and you still feel so strongly.

Cheers!

Brent

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
