Newest Perl on Win without ActiveState or Strawberryby LanX (Saint) |

After updating git-portable I do have a Perl 5.36 operating on Windows. Which is a bit surprising given all the struggle Strawberry is going thru. I remember there might be "restrictions" with this since it's optimized to work inside bash and expects *nix path conventions. But I'm wondering - well meditating - if this might not be a viable substitution for Strawberry. I also suppose that the c-compiler/make combo might cause problems when installing further modules ... (?) But portable means one could keep an unaltered git version in one directory and adjust another in a second directory... Opinions?
Cheers Rolf
