in reply to perl for windows

do yourself a big favour and get yourself set up with cygwin, which is a relatively functional unix for win32.

www.cygwin.com

has perl, apache, x and more.

make sure to tick rxvt in the shells section of the setup. and of course perl, apache etc!

obviously there is also activestate which provides the perl version i use most frequently for windows. you get a debugger as well in the pdk which is available for minimal bucks/pounds/euros/other things...

    Sorry, but I really need perl and other things for windows system, because server must be running on windows. It don't depend on me.
      cygwin runs under windows (all flavors). For the most part, you don't even need to install cygwin if all you really want are cygwin compiled executables (ie perl, apache, etc), but you do need cygwin1.dll somwhere in your path.

      I am a great fan of cygwin. But if all you really want to do is install apache and perl, then just go to www.apache.org and www.activestate.com and download the windows self-extracting executables.
