I've released berrybrew version 1.33. This version has significant enhancements, along with some bug fixes and handling of some uncaught exceptions. The changes reflect versions 1.30 to 1.33.

Major changes include:

UI:

• Allows you to install, switch to, remove and use Strawberry Perls directly
• Can now spawn a CLI window for any Perl you have installed
• Allows you to spawn a CLI window for the currently active Perl
• Provides access to modify several of the core configuration options (debug, file association etc)
• Allows you to disable all berrybrew Perls and restore to system default

Installer:

• Performs an upgrade on any previous berrybrew install
• Adds any new configuration options, while preserving the values of any previously set existing ones
• Provides facility to install the most recent version of Strawberry Perl
• Allows you to have berrybrew manage the .pl file association
• Allows you to have the UI run at system startup
• Aborts if trying to install the same version that's already installed

Functionality:

• You can now leave off the _32/_64 bit prefix on a Perl name, and we'll default to _64
• All execution paths return a proper exit code
• Added new berrybrew hidden command, lists all, well, hidden commands

For all other changes, please refer to the Changes file.

Cheers!
