I just started trying to work with the ethereal code. I haven't made any code modifications yet but am trying to get a successful build environment (windows 2000).

Things are going better than I expected and I'd like to express my thanks for all the great documentation that is available.

I am hitting a problem though :

Microsoft (R) Program Maintenance Utility   Version 6.00.8168.0

        rm -rf 0.10.14-SVN-17194
        cd ..
        cd doc
        bash pod2html                     --title="ethereal-filter - The Etherea
l Network Analyzer 0.10.14-SVN-17194"  --noindex ethereal-filter.pod > ethereal-filter.html
bash: pod2html: No such file or directory
NMAKE : fatal error U1077: 'bash' : return code '0x7f'
Stop.
NMAKE : fatal error U1077: '"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\VC98\bin\N
MAKE.EXE"' : return code '0x2'
Stop.


pod2html exists in c:\cygwin\bin and in c:\perl\bin it is a .bat though. Should bash be able to find/execute a BAT file ? Is there a recommended distribution of perl which would hae pod2html implemented using something other than a bat file ?

Any assistance is greatly appreciated.
