Why won version 2.x of MKStats work with Perl 4.xxx?
I now require perl 5 for a few reasons. First, it allows me to do many things that perl 4 cannot do, such as use the GD libraries, use multiple-dimensional arrays, etc. Second, I found it impossible to maintain two separate programs – one for perl 4 and one for perl 5. Since perl 5 is the “standard” now, and is very well tested, everyone should really have it anyway.
