in thread Parsing email files, what are the best modules ?

Hi Roger,

You need to download and install the Scalar::Util module from CPAN, probably other things you think is useful too.

Okay, I assume I can just "install" by running Perl as a shell, then install the modules I need, like this.

D:\Perl\myscripts>\perl\bin\perl.exe -MCPAN -e "shell"

By the way, the perl version I use is Active Perl 5.8.1.

I could only find ActivePerl 5.8.0 build 806 , from http://www.activestate.com/Products/Download/Download.plex?id=ActivePerl

Thanks,

Peter

    That doesn't run perl as a shell (no such thing). That won't always work, so you should read A Guide to Installing modules.
      Hi,

      That doesn't run perl as a shell (no such thing).

      It's obvious I meant a 'cpan' shell (me being a newbie, and you being an "expert")

      That won't always work

      Why won't it always work ?

      .. so you should read A Guide to Installing modules

      Which is the same node as suggested before. I have read it, digested it, and tried most of the methods to fix this. I guess I need to read it again (sigh)
