Strawberry ships with both `cpan` and `cpanm`, I've had no problems using either. `cpanm` is faster for installing modules.	[reply] [d/l] [select]

AFAIK is strawberry meant to be compatible to other *nix'ish Perls. Personally I prefer cpanminus for ease of use, but that's not strawberry specific. Cheers Rolf _{(addicted to the Perl Programming Language and ☆☆☆☆ :) Je suis Charlie!}	[reply]

I use the Strawberry CPAN client on Windows 7 all the time. Works fine.	[reply]

Howdy! Just use cpanm or cpan as you prefer. Strawberry doesn't seem to have it's own special flavor, but strives to support the "usual" tools. yours, Michael	[reply]
