[perl-win32-gui-hackers] Cygwin install of Win32-GUI-1.03_04/

[Arthur S. <asc...@ve...>]

I installed Win32-GUI-1.03_04/ into Activestate Perl using the installation
procedures. No problem. However, there doesn't seem to be anything available to
install Win32-GUI-1.03_04/ into a cygwin environment other than a direct copy
from folder to folder. This would be OK but the folder architecture is
different and I don't know how to handle the differences.

In particular:

No: Makefile.PL
No: ./perl-Win32-GUI-X.XX-X.sh  (1.03_XX)

and when the downloaded zip file is expanded, 
No: /usr/src/perl-Win32-GUI-X.XX-X.tar.bz2      (1.03_04)
    /usr/src/perl-Win32-GUI-X.XX-X-src.tar.bz2  (1.03_04)

Just a lot of "no, no's". <sigh>.

So, with some Gloom and Doom, what did I misunderstand?

Oh, the advantage of Cygwin is that this is the environment in which I prefer
to work because of shell scripting and etc. Being Really, Really old it may be
impossible to retrain me to work in the DOS Shell environment, and just simply
changing the PATH variable to reference c/Perl/bin before '/' seems just too
easy. <sigh>. Don't get Really, Really, old and dogmatic.
