Aha, that means the makefile is not appropriate for nmake. There are a number of differences between (un*x) make and nmake with respect to syntax, etc.

Normally, you get the appropriate makefile using perl Makefile.PL. That generates a makefile, in case of ActiveState Perl a makefile for nmake since those guys still don't support any other compiler than VC++ and its utilities such as nmake.

If there's a file Makefile.PL, run perl Makefile.PL</p> and then <code>nmake test, nmake install (if the former succeeds. That might work or not, but I'm not optimistic. It assumes that everything will be build and ocmpiled with VC++ and Gtk stuff is very un*x.

I hope this clarifies things a bit, good luck, -gjb-
