Strawberry also seems to work quite nicely with Komodo IDE as far as i remember.

But to tell the truth, i've been using ActivePerl for a decade on and off for developing windows tools. The included SSL stuff was always a bit flaky and worked in some ActivePerl versions and behaved oddly or was just plain broke in many others.

After ActiveState stopped supporting the PDK (i used it to make windows services), i switched to Strawberry but kept using Komodo. Even when using ActivePerl, i build as much as possible from CPAN (yes it's included in the install) and avoided ActiveStates precompiled and outdated modules - working with the precomipled stuff always felt too much like "Debian Stable" (a.k.a. the retirement home for old software).

perl -e 'use Crypt::Digest::SHA256 qw[sha256_hex]; print substr(sha256_hex("the Answer To Life, The Universe And Everything"), 6, 2), "\n";'
