These win32 installation instructions were written by Paul Hsiao and
slightly edited by me. My thanks to Paul. It was current as of
22-May-1998.
WINZIP DOWNLOAD INSTRUCTIONS
The WinZip program can be accessed from the "Start" button, if the
program came with your system. This software can be obtained from:
http://www.winzip.com/
Follow the installation instructions for the WinZip software as needed.
PERL DOWNLOAD INSTRUCTIONS
The w3mir code will need access to version 5.003 or higher of the
Perl interpreter and LWP library extensions in order for it to run.
This software can be obtained from:
http://www-personal.umich.edu/~gsar/
From this URL, select perl5.00402-bindist04-bc.tar.gz and download
to your PC into a folder of your choice. In the folder, run WinZip
on this file. For MS Windows 95, you need to update the registration:
open C:\autoexec.bat and add a line
path %path%;C:\Perl\bin;
(C:\Perl\ is the path of the perl folder)
W3MIR DOWNLOAD AND INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
You already have w3mir. Right? Unpack the .tar.gz file with
winzip.
Open a DOS prompt screen and go to the w3mir folder:
cd C:\w3mir-1.0.3
Type the install command for w3mir:
perl.exe Makefile.PL
make
make install
To test w3mir, type:
perl w3mir -h
If the screen displays all options (about 25 options), then
w3mir is installed correctly.
