I'd been meaning to get around to trying BrowserUk's Windows screengrab with GD, but I didn't have all the packages and didn't have time to install them until recently.

I made some time while updating my perl install at work, but to my disappointment, it seems that Win32::GuiTest is not available from my usual suspects for perls past 5.12... http://code.activestate.com/ppm/Win32-GuiTest/ and http://trouchelle.com/perl/ppmrepview.pl?id=66915&v=14 for example.

>cpan install Win32::GuiTest is also failing with

Has anybody been able to build and run Win32::GuiTest under perl 5.14 or higher, and if so, any tips on how to get this working?

Thanks, syphilis!

Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
