Perl Pointers

There has been some difficulty in getting wiki to work on NT, as the Perl institute at http://www.perl.org points folk at a port by ActiveState that has a bug limiting page sizes to 1k or less, which isn't very practical.

Happily, the real live PerlPorters are pushing standard CPAN Perl onto win32, and their version seems to work just fine for wiki. I used the november release at

http://www.perl.com/CPAN ... nt/Standard/x86/

I pulled off the DB_File module with it, but I don't believe that's actually needed to get things to go. YMMV.

Unix folk should probably use the regular old CPAN stuff at
