How times change.... A few years ago, I would be asking how do I get this to work on linux. Now I can't figure out how to do things on windows...it all just seems so hard. :-)

Anyways, I wanted to see if the windows version of Tk::Zinc would run on the new ActiveStatePerl mentioned ActiveState Perl 5.8.6 Build 811 now available. So I'm using WindowsMe, and the Tk-Zinc installer, says it won't install on Windows 98/Me. The new ActivePerl installed fine. So does anyone know what the problem is? Is the Zinc installer, requiring a later Windows Version, or has anyone compiled the Tk::Zinc module from source, so it would run on older Windows?

I'm not really a human, but I play one on earth. flash japh
