Please stop recommending TinyPerl, it hasn't been updated in many years. You're missing decades of improvements and bug fixes. It is clearly not suited for OPs requirements. Much of the responses you post start off from the flawed logic of insisting on running software that is out of date and unsafe (Windows XP, TinyPerl). These are not a sound basis upon which to build, suggesting to a beginner that there's any circumstances which this is the case is just wrong given the costless alternatives.
