Anonymous Monk has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hello fellow monks... damn I need help installing a module. After I run "perl makefile.pl" and then run "make". I get an error:
MAKE Version 4.0 Copyright (c) 1987, 1996 Borland International Error makefile 136: Colon expected Fatal makefile 792: No terminator specified for in-line file operator
Please tell me how to correct this minor flaw. Thank you...

    Under Win32, use nmake. This is available for free on various sites, in case you don't have it.
