Dear sir, I tried to download and install the Text-Corpus-Summaries-Wikipedia tool. But i seem to be getting an compilation error while doing so. I have downloaded the Text-Corpus-Summaries-Wikipedia-0.21 version. The perl version i have is v5.12.3 and im using windows Vista as the operating system. Following are the issues i get when trying to install. 1. perl Makefile.PL Sorry, \epoc32\gcc\bin\gcc.exe is not supported in this release. Please use a di fferent device. Use 'devices' to view the available devices. Set up gcc environment - Warning: prerequisite Date::Manip 6.11 not found. Warning: prerequisite File::Slurp 9999.13 not found.

Warning: prerequisite Statistics::Descriptive 3.0100 not found. Warning: prerequisite XML::Code 0.4 not found. Writing Makefile for Text::Corpus::Summaries::Wikipedia 2. nmake Microsoft (R) Program Maintenance Utility Version 1.50 Copyright (c) Microsoft Corp 1988-94. All rights reserved. syntax error at -e line 1, near "'755') " Missing right curly or square bracket at -e line 1, at end of line Execution of -e aborted due to compilation errors. NMAKE : fatal error U1077: 'C:\Windows\system32\cmd.exe' : return code '0xff' Stop. i have installed the nmake package too. Im not sure exactly where this error or warning are coming from. it would be great if this could be fixed soon as im do need a Corpus for a project im doing at the moment. Thank you Aslam

Aslam,
 
The error you are getting is due to how your Vista system is configured. I am not experienced with Windows but you need a working gcc compiler and you need to install the prerequisite Perl modules called Date::Manip, File::Slurp, Forks::Super, HTML::TreeBuilder::XPath, Log::Log4perl, Statistics::Descriptive, XML::Code. I recommend using the Perl cpan command to install Perl modules, it will install the prerequisite for you. The command line is 'perl -MCPAN -e shell'. See http://bit.ly/hjHsG2.
 
However, you can download a version of the data set I created in April 2010 from here http://bit.ly/dE8EW9.
