in thread Linux vs. Windows for Learning Perl

mothra no doubt that it's a lot easier to type 'ppm install DBI'. That's not my point. Notice I said there's an easier way to do it in Unix. That's based against the fact that sierrathedog04 is currently downloading tarball, perl Makefile.PL...

Instead of me typing all the commands only to learn that I need module-X before distribution-Z can be installed, perl -MCPAN -e "install Bundle::LWP" finds everything I need and installs it for me, with relative ease, I might add.

ALL HAIL BRAK!!!
