[Bioperl-l] Re::installing bioperl on Windows 2000 (help)

[Viren Konde]

Bill--I think you are missing something here..Please
follow as given below to install BioPerl..

Keep the extracted (BioPerl-0.7.2) folder in your
C:\perl\lib directory so it will look like
>>C:\perl\lib\BioPerl-0.7.2 and then ...

copy the three files to the BioPerl-0.7.2 folder
>>C:\perl\lib\BioPerl-0.7.2\three files..

and then issue the commands from the same 
BioPerl-0.7.2 folder..

1)Perl Makefile.pl
2)Nmake
3)Nmake test (optional)
4)Nmake install

I think it is going to be fine now..
If not !! Please do not hesitate to ask me ..
 
Best Wishes,
Viren
