in reply to problems with Inline

Have you checked out the CPAN module? It helps you to install modules more easily. Just try out

perl -MCPAN -e shell

Copying the library files manually definitely is a bad idea unless you really know what you are doing. Perl libraries can additionally consist of C extension files that are not inside the .pm file. For the module to work correctly, you would have to copy all these files in the correct place. It's better to let perl do this for you :)

    Thanks Crenz, I did use perl -MCPAN to install the Inline module. What I manually edited was the config file in the _Inline folder that was automatically generated by perl. Maybe I shouldn't have done that. But couldn't figure out how to make perl understand that Inline::C had to be used.
