Looking at your link, some of the commands are invalid in my PPM... For example, if I type "rep", I get "unknown command 'rep'". Could it be my "PPM" is old/duff? It says (1.0.0) on starting up!?	[reply]

Yes. My ppm (Perl 5.8.0) is version 3.1. What's your version of Perl? It must at least be 5.6 or older. holli, /regexed monk/	[reply] [d/l]

How can I see what version of perl it is? I'll download the latest version from activestate in the meantime and have a play...	[reply]
