    Thanks for the reply. I didn't realize HTML::TokeParser::Simple was a separate module. Now for the bad news. That won't install either because:

    Can't locate Sub/Override.pm in @INC

    That won't install because:

    Can't locate Test/Exception.pm in @INC

    That won't install because:

    Can't locate Sub/Uplevel.pm in @INC

    That won't install because:

    Can't open perl script ""-I/home/username/.cpan/build/Sub-Uplevel-0.1901-CL2lQ7/blib/lib"": No such file or directory

    What in the world is going on here?
      I figured it out. It was a combination of Cygwin choosing a home directory with a space in it (apparently some of the installers cannot handle that) and the test harness was obsolete. After getting that all straightened out it appears everything installed OK. However, I am not sure because I have another problem which I'll post as a different topic.
