Hi Jason,

If I can contribute in a meaningful way, I hope I can and I will.

I'll start this e-mail by saying that I'm not looking for busy people to 
hold my hand here -- I know what it's like to be busy. However, if you 
think that helping someone who is reasonably intelligent and catches on 
quickly, but who has little knowledge of UNIX (but who remembers DOS fondly 
and wishes [or wonders if] there was a UNIX equivalent for F3), will help 
with the development of Mj2, then I'll volunteer to be a newbie guinea pig.

I initially had some trouble getting "perl Makefile.PL" to work (and 
started writing a long e-mail about it with command outputs), but I 
stumbled upon something and it ran. (It seems that on my virtual server I 
have to use "perl5 Makefile.PL".) Unfortunately it told me I was missing a 
few things, which wasn't that unexpected really. I followed the 
instructions in the installation routine to install some modules (I'm 
missing six and one I have doesn't seem to be working properly) via CPAN. 
It looked like it was going to work, but for some reason the CPAN process 
hit a brick wall.

Since CPAN is probably beyond the scope of this mailing list, I'll do some 
research on the CPAN Web site and try again in the morning. Right now I'm 
going to bed. :)


Craig
