Once the Tools & SDK are installed, the build environment has to
be setup. The following batch files setup the environment.

=head2 Make
-The make process runs only under WinNT shell.
-The NetWare makefile is located under the NetWare folder.
-This makes use of miniperl.exe to run some of
-the Perl scripts. To create miniperl.exe, first set the required paths for
-Visual c++ compilier (specify vcvars32 location) at the command prompt.
-Then run nmake from win32 folder through WinNT command prompt.
-The build process can be stopped after miniperl.exe is created. Then run nmake
-from NetWare folder through WinNT command prompt.

Currently the following two build types are tested on NetWare
=head1 Install
-To install NetWare Perl onto a NetWare server, first map the Sys volume
-of a NetWare server to I<i:>. This is because the makefile by default
-sets the drive letter to I<i:>. Type I<nmake nwinstall> from NetWare folder
-on a WinNT command prompt. This will copy the binaries and module files
-onto the NetWare server under I<sys:\Perl> folder. The Perl interpreter, I<perl.nlm>,
-is copied under I<sys:\perl\system> folder. Copy this to I<sys:\system> folder.

- Similiarly if you type "nmake install",
- This will cause the binaries to be installed on the local machine.

=head1 Build new extensions
To build extensions other than standard extensions, NetWare Perl has
-to be installed on Windows along with Windows Perl. The Perl for Windows can be
-either downloaded from the CPAN site and built using the sources, or the binaries
-can be directly downloaded from the ActiveState site.
-Installation can be done by invoking I<nmake install> from the NetWare folder
-on a WinNT command prompt after building NetWare Perl by following steps given above.
-This will copy all the *.pm files and other required files.
-Documentation files are not copied.Thus one must first install Windows Perl, Then install

NetWare Perl.
Once this is done, do the following to build any extension:
nmake install
Install will copy the files into the Windows machine where NetWare
-Perl is installed and these files may have to be copied to the NetWare server
-manually. Alternatively, pass I<INSTALLSITELIB=i:\perl\lib> as an
-input to makefile.pl above. Here I<i:> is the mapped drive to the
+Perl is installed and these files may have to be copied to the NetWare
+server manually. Alternatively, pass I<INSTALLSITELIB=i:\perl\lib> as
+an input to makefile.pl above. Here I<i:> is the mapped drive to the
sys: volume of the server where Perl on NetWare is installed. Now
typing I<nmake install>, will copy the files onto the NetWare server.
perl -Ic:/perl/5.7.2/lib/NetWare-x86-multi-thread -Ic:\perl\5.7.2\lib MakeFile.pl

Note: Some modules downloaded from CPAN may require NetWare related API
in order to build on NetWare.Other modules may however build smoothly with or
