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/
|
---|

27 |
|
---|
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)
|
---|

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.
