Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays fellow Monks!

I've released v1.30 of berrybrew as a Christmas gift to our Windows Perlers.

It's a significant release, here's a list of the most noteworthy additions:

• Added a UI, runs out of the System Tray, allows installing, removing and switching Perls using a button
• Added new associate command, allowing berrybrew to manage .pl file associations
• Added berrybrew-refresh command, to be run after switching perls. No more having to re-open command line windows
• If a newer point release of a major version is introduced, we now seamlessly integrate installed previous point-releases into the Perls available
• Configuration options are now based in the Windows Registry
• Added new options command, allows changing configuration options at runtime
• We now supply a bb command, which is simply a short-hand form for berrybrew
• Greatly enhanced the self-extracting installer
• Much more precise handling of the PATH environment variable
• More graceful handling of exceptions
• Added info command which displays various internal directory path information
• Added new hidden/developer commands

Please have a read of my blog post for the full announcement details.

Cheers!,
