Strawberry CPAN

LloydRice has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

With Strawberry Perl, what is the preferred way to load CPAN modules? Should I go with the standard CPAN thing, or does Str. have a better way?

Replies are listed 'Best First'.

    Strawberry ships with both cpan and cpanm, I've had no problems using either. cpanm is faster for installing modules.

    AFAIK is strawberry meant to be compatible to other *nix'ish Perls.

    Personally I prefer cpanminus for ease of use, but that's not strawberry specific.

    I use the Strawberry CPAN client on Windows 7 all the time. Works fine.

    Howdy!

    Just use cpanm or cpan as you prefer. Strawberry doesn't seem to have it's own special flavor, but strives to support the "usual" tools.
