Hi Frans,

The program needs perlTk, a set of Perl extension modules that allows 
one to define windows with buttons, dropdown-lists etc. It's the same
extension set that texshow uses, so I assumed most people on the list
would have it installed. :)

Installation depends on your perl & operating system. 

I'm guessing you are using ActiveState perl, so you probably 
need to execute this command in a shell:

    ppm install Tk

(you have to be online for this to work)

Groetjes, Taco
