A Windows binary for MobiPerlhave been very good for getting people to use it but the disdvantage is that I will get more problem trying to change to Perl 5.10. |

You might also find the following guides to the new 5.10 features informative: Smart-Match Defined-Or 5.10 Regular Expressions Given/When (Switch) All 5.10 changes The big things to me were the smart-match, named regular expression, and speed improvements. |

I've been meaning to test Strawberry Perl to see if that's a better general solution. |

Hi tompe
Could tell about TIVO clauses ? I would gladly hear some opinions & even better if a little explanation comes with the name. Thank you. |

Could you please run 'perl -v' for me on your Mac and let me know exactly what version is installed? Early versions of 5.8 had some really ugly bugs that I'd rather not have to think about, IIRC, so I'm tempted to force at least 5.8.8, but I need to know if the MacOSX Perl can be counted on to be at least that high. |

Like I said... it is possible to upgrade it... but then I would have to modify my whole installing mobiperl tutorial. don't let me hold you back. I know how frustrating it is as a dev not being able to keep up to date with various tools. BOb |

Ugh, again. Releasing an entire distribution of Perl along with the module is not an option for me. I was able to confirm that Leopard is 5.8.8, though. I'm going to make that the minimum requirement, because 5.8.6 had a known bug dealing with using substr on unicode strings
I reserve the right to reclaim 5.10 features once 5.10 is standard both on Debian Stable and MacOSX, however. |

Like I said, IMP.pm is going to take me a while, and I make no promises, but I am looking at it. |
