I'd been meaning to get around to trying BrowserUk's Windows screengrab with GD, but I didn't have all the packages and didn't have time to install them until recently.

I made some time while updating my perl install at work, but to my disappointment, it seems that Win32::GuiTest is not available from my usual suspects for perls past 5.12... http://code.activestate.com/ppm/Win32-GuiTest/ and http://trouchelle.com/perl/ppmrepview.pl?id=66915&v=14 for example.

>cpan install Win32::GuiTest is also failing with

Has anybody been able to build and run Win32::GuiTest under perl 5.14 or higher, and if so, any tips on how to get this working?

Thanks, syphilis!
