I'm using version 3.0, at CPAN (e.g. ftp.uni-freiburg.de/pub/CPAN/)
I found now:
  CPAN:authors/id/JDALLMAN/hbp_403.zip
It is a MS-DOS program and I assume that it doesn't work with long
filenames (but I am using only short ones). In this version
John Dallman have renamed #!perl.exe to hbperl.exe but the
function remains and the source is written in C instead of Pascal.

Yours sincerely
