Installing Agent Perl

Get Tom-2.04 AlphaThree and apply the patch (see below). Note that Tom-3.00 is incompatible with this version.

In general, the following should work:

        perl Makefile.PL
        make
        make install

Apply the Patch

Included with this distribution is a patch for Tom.pm v2.04 AlphaThree. To apply the patch go to Class-Tom-2.04's parent directory, and type:

patch -p0 < Tom.pm.patch-spurkis-a3-01

Or just apply the patch manually - it's a simple two line fix.

Note for Win32 Users

If you don't have a make utility, try setting your PERL5LIB environment variable to point to the Agent Perl distribution. If that doesn't work, try copying all of the .pm files into your site-perl directory, making sure to keep the directory structure intact.

Anyone willing to compile a PPM for Agent Perl is more than welcome!

Please read the README file before you start to play :-).
