=head2 Tools & SDK
-The build requires Watcom 11.x compiler and linker. NetWare SDK,
-available at L<http://developer.novell.com/ndk/>, is required. Apart
-from NetWare SDK, "NLM & NetWare Libraries for C" and "NetWare Server
-Protocol Libraries for C" are also required. This is also available
-at the above mentioned site. Microsoft Visual C++ version 4.2 or
-later is also required.

=head2 Setup
=head2 Make
-The makefile is located under the NetWare folder. Type nmake at the
-WinNT command prompt. The make process runs only under WinNT shell.
-The makefile makes use of miniperl.exe to run some of the Perl
-scripts. Please run nmake from win32 folder which builds miniperl.exe
-before running nmake from NetWare folder. The build process can be
-stopped after miniperl.exe is created.
+The make process runs only under WinNT shell.

+from NetWare folder through WinNT command prompt.
Currently the follwing two build types are tested on NetWare
=head2 Interpreter
-Once miniperl.exe creation is over, run nmake from the NetWare
-folder. This will build the Perl interpreter for NetWare as
-I<perl.nlm>. This is copied under the I<Release> folder if you are
-doing a release build else will be copied under I<Debug> folder for
-debug builds.

=head2 Extensions
=head1 Install
-Installing NetWare Perl on Windows doesn't make any sense. To
-install, type I<nmake nwinstall>. This will copy the binaries and
-module files to a NetWare server. The makefile, by default sets the
-drive letter to I<i:> which should be mapped to the I<sys> volume of a
-NetWare server. The Perl interpreter, I<perl.nlm>, is copied under
-I<sys:\perl\system> folder. Copy I<perl.nlm> to I<sys:\system>
-folder. Before running I<nmake nwinstall>, make sure the NetWare
-server on which the files have to go is mapped to the drive letter
-I<i:>.
+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. The Perl interpreter, I<perl.nlm>, is copied under
+I<sys:\perl\system> folder. Copy I<perl.nlm> to I<sys:\system> folder.
=head1 Build new extensions
To build extensions other than standard extensions, NetWare Perl has
to be installed on Windows as well. This can be done by invoking
-I<nmake install> on the Windows NT command prompt. This will copy all
-the *.pm files and other required files. Documentation files are not
-copied. This has be done after installing Perl for Windows. Once this
-is done, to build any extension, do the following
+I<nmake install> from the NetWare folder on a WinNT command prompt.
+This will copy all the *.pm files and other required files.
+Documentation files are not copied. This has to be done after

=head1 Acknowledgements
The makefile for Win32 is used as a reference to create the makefile
-for NetWare build. Also, the make process for NetWare port uses miniperl.exe
-to run scripts during the make and installation process.
