in reply to RFC: Tutorials Installing Perl on Windows Strawberry Perl

Given that Strawberry Perl has a nice GUI installer and limited options (well one, accept the licence agreement or don't install) I'm not sure what exactly your proposed tutorial would cover.

Perhaps a general tutorial for installing Perl would suffice, linking to the perl.org Download Perl page, which provides links for ActiveState and Strawberry Perl distributions, as well as the source. I think this sort of thing along with some general installation do's and don'ts, cpan configuration hints and tips, installing via the package management system of choice (apt etc..) and perhaps some hints and tips for rolling your own from source should suffice.

    Yes. Exactly something like that, first CPAN config, (esp. at the company behind the firewall, cost my half a day ...)

    Thanks MH
