Hello marinersk,

Don’t give up so quickly!

Looks like you’re on MS Windows. So, install Strawberry Perl. I’m using version 5.20.0.1 / 64bit, in the “PortableZIP” package which comes with PDL. This installed without hassle, and the installation includes Win32::GuiTest 1.60 as part of the package. (See the release notes for the many other modules, tools, and libraries that are bundled in the installation package). The chief benefit of using the “PortableZIP” install is that it sits happily side-by-side with any other Perl installations on your system.

Why make things harder for yourself than they need to be? ;-)

Hope that helps,
