Installation of ARSperl
- Download the distribution
(also available via ftp)
Pre-compiled binaries for Windows NT
- Unpack (requires gzip and tar on Unix or
WinZip under Windows)
- Edit the Makefile.PL and follow the brief instructions contained in
it.
- Type "perl Makefile.PL"
- Type "make"
- Type "make install" (may require special permission). This will
install the perl extension into the perl lib directory (typically,
/usr/local/lib/perl5)
- Try one of the example scripts.
Notes
HPUX users will need to compile the extension statically into the Perl binary.
See the ARSperl FAQ
section for details.
Windows NT users can use the binary kit available by following the
lines in step 1, above, instead of compiling it.
