:>Did you dowload and expand the file: ... cpan-mac-0.40.sit.bin
:>I suspect that that is what is meant by the 'cpan-mac' distribution.

Thanks for this guide. I mixed up the archive network CPAN with a cpan module.
My Simple.pm tests work now successfully.

May I insist though that this should be documented much more clearly.
Even if this is work in progress - using AE on the Mac is such a distinctive
and important feature that everybody should be able to make use of it.


:Larry is right.  "cpan-mac" ne "MacPerl".  However, I am going to upload a
:new version (sometime soon) of Mac::AppleEvents that does not require
:cpan-mac (it was a mistake to do so in the first place).

cpan-mac's Install.plx installs 209 files. This is pretty impressive.
Who made all those changes, ports, testing, etc. (I was off the list for
nearly 2 years)? Still impressed! Quite a lot of work in order to get
"Mac::AppleEvents:Simple" going. Thank you Chris!

Will there be a near future version of MacPerl which incooperates all of
those changes, immediately installed into the "lib" folder?


Many regards


Axel
