1 Installing from a Unix-like distro
------------------------------------
shell>gunzip Genealogy-Gedcom-Date-1.08.tgz
shell>tar mxvf Genealogy-Gedcom-Date-1.08.tar
On Unix-like systems, assuming you have installed Module::Build V 0.25+:
shell>perl Build.PL
shell>./Build
shell>./Build test
shell>./Build install
On MS Windows-like systems, assuming you have installed Module::Build V 0.25+:
shell>perl Build.PL
shell>perl Build
shell>perl Build test
shell>perl Build install
Alternately, without Module::Build, you do this:
Note: 'make' on MS Windows-like systems may be called 'nmake' or 'dmake'.
shell>perl Makefile.PL
shell>make
shell>make test
shell>su (for Unix-like systems)
shell>make install
shell>exit (for Unix-like systems)
On all systems:
Run Date.pm through your favourite pod2html translator.
