[comp.lang.perl] perl for MSDOS executable?

I don't have MSC, but would like to use perl on my pc too. Could somebody
make it available for anonymous ftp?
Thanks in advance

I realize this is a bit late (looking at the generation markers on Mr. Morris'
offer), but I'd apreciate it if someone could forward the MS-DOS version to me.
I have SCO at home, but I'm stuck with MS-DOS at work (at least in the small
sense.. If anyone can come up with a way to get Perl for an IBM 3090E (MVS/ESA) 
I'd kiss their feet.. You can believe how starved we are for good Unix
utilities). Anyhow, I don't care how many tiny bugs are in it (right now)
because I'd likely be using it for very small things (for now) until I could
sell them on it. Thanks very much.

I have been following this news group for only a short while and have seen
postings about an MSDOS executable.  I am aware of several persons asking
other users to forward a copy of MSDOS perl to them.  I would also like to
receive a copy of the program but feel that it would be more convenient
for someone to set up an anonymous ftp site for the executable.  This may
have already been done and I have missed it.  If someone has done or is
doing this would you please post the address for everyone else.  Thank you
very much for the help!!
