README file for Javascript::MD5. Warning: WinZip 8.1 and 9.0 both contain an 'accidental' bug which stops them recognizing the directory structures of some valid *.tar files. You are better off using a reliable tool such as InfoZip: ftp://ftp.info-zip.org/pub/infozip/ This bug has something to do with POSIX style paths. 1 Installing from a Unix-like distro ------------------------------------ shell>gunzip Javascript-MD5-1.00.tgz shell>tar mxvf Javascript-MD5-1.00.tar On Unix-like systems: shell>perl Build.PL shell>./Build shell>./Build test shell>./Build install On MS Windows-like systems: shell>perl Build.PL shell>perl Build shell>perl Build test shell>perl Build install On all systems: Run MD5.pm through you favourite pod2html translator.
