I am desperate to have a perl for DOS (32-bit extended, not 16-bit
or Windows) which has 'inport' and 'outport' instructions. I
frequently use DJGPP (GO32) and it seems like it would be a natural
to compile perl. Unfortunately, I have had many problems just
expanding the archive. Also, all of the make utilities rely on
running 'sh', etc.
I downloaded the OS/2 port of perl (perl5x.exe), but I get SIGSEGV
exceptions when I try to run a script (using RSX as the extender).
Even if I do get it to work, I have no idea how I will compile in
the 'inport' and 'outport' instructions that I need.
Is anyone else working on solving this problem? I am in desperate need
and I am willing to put some time into it.
Regards,
Jason Kridner
