Hello Monks, I have been writing scripts and packages without any structure/framework. Recently, I learned about h2xs and now I use this whenever I can to add modules and test cases. This is all fine for plain vanila modules. My question is, in my current project I have multiple config files (*.cfg). I added them to the manifest file. So my manifest file looks like this: 
Changes
Makefile.PL
MANIFEST
README
t/EM.t
lib/EM.pm
cfg/log.conf
cfg/AppConfig.conf
cfg/EMConfig.conf
cfg/UserConfig.conf

[download]
Now, when I do  nmake install, I was expecting these configs to be copied to the install path. However, this does not happen. Is there something I am missing here?

Also, the test cases I have, would require the configs. Do I have to manually copy the .conf files to the \t directory for testing purpose? I was thinking, it would be cool to have nmake test should somehow automatically refer/copy the configs correctly.

Gracias, Dece
