in reply to perl for HP NonStop

Did you try to compile a version?

If you haven't, download a recent perl source tar-ball (5.12.2 +) and give it a try. You should have much better results with the later perl versions, and you will probably have a more stable release. Just follow the "INSTALLATION" example and give it a try.

I did a search of a 5.12.2 dist and found some references to "NonStop-UX is now supported". But that looked like some very old documentation.

Good Luck

    I don't have access to Nonstop hardware. I'm just asking if it is theoretically possible to run (any recent) perl on it.
