INSTALLATION perl Makefile.PL make make test make install SUPPORTED PLATFORMS Should work on any 32-bit or 64-bit platform. Tested on: OpenSuSE 10 intel RedHat 7 intel Windows Server 2003 intel Solaris 8 sparc (sunfreeware perl and gcc) Solaris 10 intel (sunfreeware perl and gcc) AUTHOR The original C implementation of LGI$HPWD was written by Shawn Clifford. The code has since been developed by Davide Casale, Mario Ambrogetti, Terence Lee, Jean-loup Gailly, Solar Designer, and Andrew Main (Zefram). Mike McCauley created the first version of "Authen::DecHpwd", establishing the Perl interface. This was based on Shawn Clifford's code without the later developments. Andrew Main (Zefram) created a new "Authen::DecHpwd" based on the more developed C code presently used, and added ancillary functions.
