in reply to Installer for Perl Application

It works, but I get a lot of calls for help from some poor drub who can't read and follow even simple, basic instructions.

You should be glad that you are getting calls for help---that means somebody is trying to use your program. That's a start. Now it's up to you to make the instructions simpler and more understandable. Follow tilly's advice.

    Well, I am always glad for feedback that people are using my program. But some are really beyond reach, or so it seems. Maybe Some people are just beyond any attempts to educate.

    But I hold out hope that if someone can get it up and running, curiosity will lead them to tinker at some point. And any time I spend on trivial installation stuff is time I cannot spend on improving the program. I want to get the uninitiated user over that first big Perl "learning curb" and get something working for them.

    Thanks, Nat
