trdomracc4 Here's a conversation between vaccine and Yamar about getting it working on Mac OS X:
vaccine: For OS X: vaccine: You will need expat if you don't have it already - http://sourceforge.net/projects/expat/ vaccine: run ./check-prerequisites.pl and install missing pieces vaccine: You will need HTML::Tagset for the optional WWW::Babelfish module vaccine: I needed to install expat first Yamar: expat from source? nopre-package? vaccine: umm Yamar: (ie, not on the install OS X CD)? vaccine: yeah.. I just d/l'ed 2.0 off the sf page vaccine: yep.. got the source and just compiled it vaccine: and install missingpieces was all done with CPAN vaccine: oh.. vaccine: and your cpan command will require OS X users to use "sudo" Yamar: not surprising. Yamar: (as it should be) vaccine: on your "getting.html" page vaccine: this: Run perl -MCPAN -e shell and at the prompt type "install MODULENAME" for each listed module you need or want vaccine: for OS X will be Run sudo perl-MCPAN -e shell vaccine: outside of that, it was all the same =) Yamar: ah, true. Yamar: I should have at least put "as root" vaccine: oh, and this all assumes that the OS X user has the dev tools vaccine: by default there is no compiler on OS X vaccine: you need to install the developer tools (which is free) vaccine: it's just seperate vaccine: it's either on theOS media.. vaccine: or available at Apple's site vaccine: http://developer.apple.com/tools/ vaccine: http://developer.apple.com/tools/download/ vaccine: that's the download
