Hi, thanks -- I tried installing MinGW and get this:

C:\Perl64\site\lib\Tk>ppm install MinGW
Downloading ActiveState Package Repository packlist...done
Updating ActiveState Package Repository database...done
ppm install failed: Can't find any package that provides MinGW

And the cpan repository appears empty:

C:\working\ic-metrics\ICCrawler>ppm rep
┌────┬───────┬────────────────────────────────┐
│ id │ pkgs  │ name                           │

│  4 │    13 │ wxperl                         │
└────┴───────┴────────────────────────────────┘
 (3 enabled repositories)

I appreciate your help -- sorry if I'm running around in circles!
