When you built the module, did you notice this:

Warning: prerequisite Win32::Pipe 0 not found.

Or this:

t/02_CursorFunc.t ...... Can't locate Win32/Pipe.pm in @INC (@INC cont +ains: C:\s trawberry\perl\lib\Win32-Console-ANSI-1.04\blib\lib C:\strawberry\perl +\lib\Win32 -Console-ANSI-1.04\blib\arch C:/strawberry/perl/site/lib C:/strawberry +/perl/vend or/lib C:/strawberry/perl/lib .) at t/02_CursorFunc.t line 3.

I don't use Strawberry Perl, so I cannot help you with that.

As far as I remember, Win32::Console::ANSI may have come with my AS distribution -- the Win32::Pipe dependancy certainly did -- but even if it didn't and I needed to install it, I'd only have to do:

C:\test>ppm-shell ppm 4.10 (ActivePerl 1007) Copyright (C) 2010 ActiveState Software Inc.

which took about 12 seconds.


With the rise and rise of 'Social' network sites: 'Computers are making people easier to use everyday'
Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.
"Science is about questioning the status quo. Questioning authority".
In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice.

The start of some sanity?
