Perl...

[Jashin_155]

Hi all!

I have installed Perl, and I have downloaded all the perl scripts on PMC. But I have a problem: I don't know how to use them!

Can you explain me ho to write a correct command line for perl scripts?

Thank you all!

Jashin,
PERL is a DOS-based program.

1. Go to your DOS prompt. (You shouls get a black screen w/ white letters)

2. Type in CD\, that should bring you to your root directory (For example C

3. Type CD\perl\bin and that should bring up something like this,,, C:\perl\bin

4. You are in PERL now.

5. To use PERL you have to type perl to run the PERL scripts (For example C:\perl\bin perl tga2res.pl syria_small.jpg SMALL_MAP_ID) then hit the enter key. That will run the script for you.

Not perfect but it should get you moving in the right direction.
