Running Active State Perl command-line debugger from cygwin
I would like to use cygwin tools (screen..) for development and invoking ActiveState Perl debugger from cygwin environment throws the following error.
bash-3.2$ perl -d test.pl
The system cannot find the path specified.

I couldn't find any workaround for this.
Tried to use cygwin perl distrubution,but compiling perl modules under cpan is nightmare for me as most of them won't compile and don't have in-depth knowledge to fix compiler errors.
Providing a fake terminal for debugger may work but no idea about feasibility and how to proceed.
Please suggest if there is any workaround for this.
