( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??
Hi thanks for your help. The problem that I have is that this is above my head. I wrote the programs I use a few years back when it was easy to install and I don't really want to go backwards and install all of this over again.

I created a new file called what you suggested and put in the contents like you said and then ran this and this is what I got.

C:\>cpanp -z Win32::Printer patch -p1 -i./Win32-Printer-0.9.0-formingw.diff
Set up gcc environment - 3.4.5 (mingw-vista special r3)
ERROR 'patch' does not contain an author part

ERROR Cannot find 'patch' in the module tree

No such module: patch
Key 'p1' is not a valid key for CPANPLUS::Internals::Fetch::_fetch provided by C PANPLUS::Module::fetch at C:/Perl/lib/CPANPLUS/Module.pm line 580.
Microsoft Windows Version 5.2.3790
(C) Copyright 1985-2003 Microsoft Corp.

C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Application Data\.cpanplus\5.16.1\build\ Win32-Printer-0.9.0>

Could you please give me more defined steps so that I can get this accomplished. I would be in your debt.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
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.
