Hi all,

I'm new to Inline. I just installed it using ppm and tried the hello program. 

#!/usr/bin/perl -w

use Inline C;
use strict;

hello_inline();

__END__
__C__
#include <stdio.h>

void hello_inline( ) {
       printf( "Hello World. Best Regards from Inline\n" );
}

I get the following error message. 
>C:\...\hello.pl
'nmake' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

A problem was encountered while attempting to compile and install your
+ Inline
C code. The command that failed was:
  nmake > out.make 2>&1

The build directory was:
C:\...\_Inline\build\hello_pl_3492

To debug the problem, cd to the build directory, and inspect the outpu
+t files.

 at ...\hello.pl line 0
INIT failed--call queue aborted.

I looked through the files created and can't find the nmake command. I'm using the microsoft visual C++ compiler (command line free version).

Thanks
IlanV
