I've got about 3/4 of my application built in Zope (entirely in dtml I'm =
afraid to say) but I'm reaching a point where it's difficult to continue =
with only DTML (things like complicated database structures and =
validation of input fields) and since I don't quite know python yet =
(currently teaching myself) and I'm adept at Perl, I'd like to =
incorporate Perl Scripts into my app. I got the pyperl-1.0.beta.tar.gz =
and zoperl-1.0.beta.tar.gz modules from ActiveState but I really have no =
idea if they're Win32 compatible (or only on Linux/Unix etc) and if they =
are, how to install them. I'm reluctant now to switch to a standalone =
Perl solution now that I've invested so much time into the Zope one. =20
Thanks for your help!

1) Are you planning on doing Perl scripting for Zope?
2) You can install stand-alone perl environment by using =
ActiveState? www.activestate.com
-josh
I'm running Zope on a Windoze 2k machine (no, I'm not happy about =
the situation ;P ) and I'm a Perl programmer by training. Has Perl =
Scripting support been ported to Win yet and if so could someone =
possibly run me through the procedure of installing it (I'm a bit of a =
newb to installing ports in Win32)?=20
Thanks very much!=20
