Experiments with Strawberry

C:\Users\Pete>ppm install Image::Magick Installing package 'Image-Magick'... Error installing package 'Image-Magick': Read a PPD for 'Image-Magick' +, but it is not intended for this build of Perl (MSWin32-x86-multi-th +read-64int-5.20)

Trying with CPAN seemed to work (one test failed but I forced it in), but I now can't get Image::ExifTool to install... I will continue to try.

I've now managed to install everything I need - I was getting random failures in CPAN that were avoided by quitting and restarting the DOS CMD prompt

    For reference in case anyone else needs to do this here's what I did:

    1. Install Strawberry 5.20.1 for 32 bit

    2. Instal ImageMagick 6.9.0 Q16 for 32 bit including the headers

    3. start CPAN and force install Image::Magick

    I didn't try with the 64 bit versions. So far so good, let's see how I get on with Strawberry this time!
