Corion and Marto:

When I download "Perl GUI Loft" from here: http://www.darserman.com/Perl/Loft/Loft_binary.zip, (and then I unzip it), then a "PPM" directory is created, with two sub-directories: "AdHoc" and "Loft".

Then the instructions here: http://www.darserman.com/Perl/Loft/reference.html#the_win32__gui__loft_runtime say that I have to run the install.bat batch files in both directories. Those batch files are very simple, for example:

echo Installing Win32::GUI::Loft call ppm install Win32-GUI-Loft.ppd

But when I run it, I get:

'ppm' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

Corion: when I go:

cpan Win32::GUI::AdHoc

I get:

Warning: Cannot install Win32::GUI::AdHoc, don't know what it is.

How to make cpan recognize the GUI Loft modules?

By the way, each one of the two directories has the binary in a *PPM.tar.gz module - how should I install them?

many TIA - Helen

to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • 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.
