    Readme for installing Image::Magick module.

    For Windows systems, type
    perl Makefile.nt
    nmake install

    can you try this ?

      kulls, I tried the above mention commands, but again i am getting the same error.

      My system configuration is : Windows 2000 and Perl 5.8

        hi,
        you're correct.It required some win 2000 support in order to proceed further. check the prerequest for installing this.

    It looks like it's trying to compile some parts of the module. Do you have a compiler, linker, etc. on your box?

    Just out of curiosity, is there some reason you're *not* using ppm to do this?

      It doesn't look like he has a compiler (cl.exe)

      MJD says "you can't just make shit up and expect the computer to know what you mean, retardo!"
      I run a Win32 PPM repository for perl 5.6.x and 5.8.x -- I take requests (README).
