Perl 5.7.1 for Amiga
« on: August 06, 2002, 01:02:28 AM »
A new (development) version of Perl for the Amiga has been released on Aminet. This version replaces the previous v5.6.0.

From the readme:
I have found it to be quite stable, but please read the readme_1st.amiga and remember:
This is a development version for perl 5.8.0!
There is no man pages included in this archive (the pod files are!).
There is a known bug, but it is explained in the readme_1st.amiga.
This is also the last perl for the amiga.

Download it here: ftp://de.aminet.net/pub/aminet/dev/gg/perl571.lha  (Aminet, 5.5MB)

Perl is more than a scripting language today :) ActiveState version and zip packages for Win32 is excellent -such a repository for Amiga would be fine !- The main problem is  portability of particular modules with OS dependencies. From Linux to Windows, this is sometimes quite difficult..then for amiga...it requires time.
