in reply to Package Extraction

Have you checked to see that pp is on the path? You may need to provide a path to pp as part of the command line.

BTW, what OS are you using and what was the actual error message?

    I have the command line set to C:\ when I run pp, and I'm running Windows XP. I don't know where pp should be installed though, would it be in a Perl or ActivePerl directory?

      Most likely its path is c:\Perl\bin\pp.

        The only thing in there that is remotely close to pp is ppm, but that's the Perl Package Manager. As I said before, I already installed PAR using PPM and by command-line "nmake".

        BTW, the specific error code is, "'pp' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file."
