There's a GUI version of perl? Sorry, I'm using Visual SlickEdit and the command window to execute. So far, I've not managed anything, let alone a Package. How would I download/install a package manager, & should I be concerned about WHICH one to use: Free is good, but function counts for a lot too. My "older perl" quit working when I upgraded my laptop, hence the new download of the ASperl. I'm using XP, but I don't think Linux is far off. Thanks.

    Well, if you what you mean is Perl IDE....

    Open source softwares? Share and enjoy. Make profit from them if you can. Yet, share and enjoy!

    No. There is a GUI version of ppm. If you have a standard install of ActiveState Perl then run C:\Perl\bin\ppm.bat to install pre-packaged modules as described above.
