| 10 | How to install w3mir on Win95/AS-port (April 1999):
|
|---|
| 11 | ===================================================
|
|---|
| 12 |
|
|---|
| 13 | + get and install winzip from http://www.winzip.com/
|
|---|
| 14 | + get and install ActivePerl (now Build 509) from http://www.activestate.com/
|
|---|
| 15 | + get nmake.exe from
|
|---|
| 16 | ftp://ftp.microsoft.com/Softlib/MSLFILES/nmake15.exe
|
|---|
| 17 | (or set switch make=nmake to make=dmake in Config.pm
|
|---|
| 18 | and get dmake from GS port)
|
|---|
| 19 |
|
|---|
| 20 | + perl makefile.pl
|
|---|
| 21 | + nmake
|
|---|
| 22 | + nmake install
|
|---|
| 23 |
|
|---|
| 24 | + perl w3mir -h
|
|---|
| 25 | + perl w3mir http://xx.zz.zz/dir/
|

|
|---|
| 28 | Caveats:
|
|---|
| 29 | ========
|
|---|
| 30 |
|
|---|
| 31 | + archive 1.0.6 from CPAN seems to be corrupted
|
|---|
| 32 |
|
|---|
| 33 | + &mkdir does not seem to work with dos-paths
|
|---|
| 34 | like 'D:/DIR1/DIR2'
|
|---|
| 35 | (so it is not possible to save to another harddisk)
|
|---|
| 36 |

| 44 | WINZIP DOWNLOAD INSTRUCTIONS
|
|---|
| 45 |
|
|---|
| 46 | The WinZip program can be accessed from the "Start" button, if the
|
|---|
| 47 | program came with your system. This software can be obtained from:
|
|---|
| 48 |
|
|---|
| 49 | http://www.winzip.com/
|
|---|
| 50 |
|
|---|
| 51 | Follow the installation instructions for the WinZip software as needed.
|
|---|
| 52 |
|
|---|
| 53 |
|
|---|
| 54 | PERL DOWNLOAD INSTRUCTIONS
|
|---|
| 55 |
|
|---|
| 56 | The w3mir code will need access to version 5.003 or higher of the
|
|---|
| 57 | Perl interpreter and LWP library extensions in order for it to run.
|
|---|
| 58 | This software can be obtained from:
|
|---|
| 59 |
|
|---|
| 60 | ftp://sunsite.uio.no/pub/languages/perl/CPAN/ports/win32/Standard
|
|---|
| 61 |
|
|---|
| 62 | From this URL, select perl5.00402-bindist04-bc.tar.gz and download
|
|---|
| 63 | to your PC into a folder of your choice. In the folder, run WinZip
|
|---|
| 64 | on this file. For MS Windows 95, you need to update the registration:
|
|---|
| 65 | open C:\autoexec.bat and add a line
|
|---|
| 66 |
|
|---|
| 67 | path %path%;C:\Perl\bin;
|
|---|
| 68 | (C:\Perl\ is the path of the perl folder)

| 71 | W3MIR DOWNLOAD AND INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
|
|---|
| 72 |
|
|---|
| 73 | You already have w3mir. Right? Unpack the .tar.gz file with
|
|---|
| 74 | winzip.
|
|---|
| 75 |
|
|---|
| 76 | Open a DOS prompt screen and go to the w3mir folder:
|
|---|
| 77 |
|
|---|
| 78 | cd C:\w3mir-1.0.3
|
|---|
| 79 |
|
|---|
| 80 | Type the install command for w3mir:
|
|---|
| 81 |
|
|---|
| 82 | perl.exe Makefile.PL
|
|---|
| 83 | make
|
|---|
| 84 | make install
|
|---|
| 85 |
|
|---|
| 86 | To test w3mir, type:
|
|---|
| 87 |
|
|---|
| 88 | perl w3mir -h
|
|---|
| 89 |
|
|---|
| 90 | If the screen displays all options (about 25 options), then
|
|---|
| 91 | w3mir is installed correctly.
