To be able to run bin/build, bin/docset_build and bin/makeindex under Win32, you'll have to go through the following steps (while you are in the modperl-docs directory): ..\modperl-docs>cd bin ..\modperl-docs\bin>pl2bat build ..\modperl-docs\bin>pl2bat docset_build ..\modperl-docs\bin>pl2bat makeindex Now, being placed in your base directory, you can execute "bin\build" with any normal options. Note that you need some extra prereuisites to be able to run makeindex (swish-e for instance). To generate the PDF version of the site, you will also need the 'ps2pdf' utility, which is included with the GhostScript distribution: http://www.ghostscript.com/doc/AFPL/index.htm . Once you install it, you will need to add the lib\ and bin\ directories to your PATH (the directories depend on where you installed the Ghostscript distribution): * Under Win9x, add the line set PATH=C:\gs\gs7.04\bin;C:\gs\gs7.04\lib;%PATH% to your C:\autoexec.bat file. * Under WinNT, go to Control Panel -> System -> Advanced -> Environment variables, and edit the PATH variable accordingly. If these files change in SVN, you will need to redo the above steps, or you won't see the changes.
