Well said that man. But it doesn't stop there ... it is even better than AS perl, since it [Strawberry Perl] is bundled with GUN C compiler and make:-)) Self-evidently, the compiler is of most use when attempting to install modules having XS elements etc. That being said, it's worth it for make(1) alone - why bother with M$ nmake when you don't have to ? A user level that continues to overstate my experience :-))	[reply]
