Greetings, yellow doggers, i have a question/problem,... any ideas?
I am wondering why this perl program i downloaded does not work and in fact
states that it does not exist! even when run as root. I am running perl 5.6,
perl is at /usr/bin/perl and that is what is requested at txt2pdf.pl she bang
line. This is appears to be a cool program, if i could get it to work,... it
changes a text file into a pdf, apperently i downloaded it from the authors

[davidwri@RR davidwri]$ cd /usr/local/txt2pdf-5.6
