Why Perl 4? Perl 4 was supposed to go the way of the dinosaur many years ago. If your platform can run NT or Win2K, you'll have no problem running Perl 5. If you're running Perl 4 because your boss, admin, secretary, etc. stated that you needed to keep that, then I suggest they don't know what they are talking about. Even if you really do have Perl 4 running on that box, I doubt you'd have a problem installing Perl 5 and running it concurrently.
