My error was in the way I was trying to install. When I used the ActiveState installer, PPM, everything went well.
As for WATCOM, you are correct, WW, that it has been around for a while. I first used it shortly after the CP/M days. The original creator was bought out, maybe as an attempt to kill it, but it has since become available as a public domain system. The support community is a bit on the "serious hacker" side. As far as I know, there are no more "user oriented" forums. But it does work up to x86 and NT models. To my knowledge, there is no support for 64-bit. But HEY, I'm really a Perl fan. So enough about C.

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.
