Hi there! I am a huge fan of the MegaHAL module, I use it very frequently. When I was installing from the CPAN site (the ppm only has version 0.05), I ran Makefile.pl, and it said:
Checking if your kit is complete...
Looks good
Writing Makefile for AI::MegaHAL
So everything looks fine. When I tried to install with "nmake" (the Microsoft equivalent of "make") it gives the following error:

NMAKE : fatal error U1077: 'C:\WINDOWS\system32\cmd.exe' : return code '0x1'
Stop.
I am running Microsoft Windows XP (SP2) [Version 5.1.2600] and "perl, v5.8.8 built for MSWin32-x86-multi-thread" This error comes up on all versions of of the module on Windows. It also happens on my (Windows) laptop. I would really like to have version 0.06_01 of the module, but I seem to be stuck for now. If you could come up with some way to fix it, that would be great, and I bet there are other people who who be grateful as well. Thank you!
