Thanks again for pursuing this thread, ikegami

So that I would be sure that I had perl working, I did a hello world as follows:

#!/usr/bin/perl -w print "Hello, world!\n";

For which I got this:

C:\Perl64\bin>Hello_world_test.pl Hello, world!

Naturally, I added a 'use strict;' line as follows to the script:

#!/usr/bin/perl -w use strict; print "Hello, world!\n";

For which I got:

C:\Perl64\bin>Hello_world_test.pl Can't locate strict.pm in @INC (@INC contains: .) at C:\Perl64\bin\Hel +lo_world_t est.pl line 2. BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at C:\Perl64\bin\Hello_world_test.pl + line 2.

I can find strict.pm in lib, but apparently Perl can't

Does this suggest an approach? If you are bored with this thread, I shall certainly understand.
