I've transferred perl 5.002 (from puma) to a Mac Classic II running netBSD.
I'm new to un*x, but I want to learn to use perl.

When I run the configure program, whether or not I select the -d flag, the
program quits when it can't find a "hints" file to cd to, and then can't
open /UU/myread.

Specifically, after it determines that this is my first time through the
configuration program, it says:

cd: can't cd to hints.
ls: *.sh: No such file or directory.

[Then two lines of instructions]

.: Can't open ../UU/myread

There is a myread file; there isn't a hints directory.

I'm looking for a way to either use the Configure script or an alternate
way to build a configuration file.



Thanks for your help.
