Hello!

I found a strange, but still a solution for compiling the Tk-TableMatrix for the 5.28.1.1.

The thing is that make didn't created needed folders for correct compilation for some reason.

Look at this

gmake[1]: *** No rule to make target '..\blib\arch\Tk\pTk\.exists', needed by 'config'. Stop.

It had given me a hint, that this file doesn't exist.

I've tried following:

 cd to .\blib\arch 

create Tk folder 
create Tk\pTk folder 
create Tk\pTk\compat folder
create Tk\X11 folder

create empty '.exists' files in Tk\pTk, Tk\X11 
and Tk\pTk\compat folders
[download]

This helped me to avoid gmake errors.

Also I patched the TableMatrix.xs file like described in https://www.perlmonks.org/?node_id=713034

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).
