XML::Twig 3.0.9 installs nicely under Windows NT (SP5) with ActiveState Perl 5.6.1 build 633 for me. If memory serves I also installed it under cygwin with that Perl distribution directly from CPAN.

I must say I rather like XML::Twig's approach, although the other modules mentioned have their advantages too.

Lastly, for large files, you may want to use the SAX interface rather than the DOM unless you've lots of memory to spare. In such situations, XML::Twig may be a nice compromise.

Just my 2 cents, -gjb-

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
