Re^4: Program for Windows and Unix

Except with ancient Perls, it should not be necessary to install it. corelist says

$ corelist if

if was first released with perl 5.006002
[download]

which perlhist documents to have been released 2003-Nov-15.

And if the module wasn't found, the error would be "Can't locate if.pm in @INC...". So, I suppose the error here lies elsewhere.

Aahh, maybe missing semicolon `use if $^O eq 'MSWin32', 'Win32::NetResource';`	[reply] [d/l]

yeah, something like that... I do get a similar error when the semicolon is missing from the previous "expression", e.g. `+ use if $^O eq 'MSWin32', 'Win32::NetResource'; __END__ "use" not allowed in expression at ./746794.pl line 3, at end of line syntax error at ./746794.pl line 3, near "use if " Execution of ./746794.pl aborted due to compilation errors.` [download]	[reply] [d/l]
