Agree. I'm exclusively on Windows and moved from ActiveState to Strawberry in 2009 and never looked back. It just works the way Perl is supposed to work.	[reply]

This would have been helpful information to put in your post (How do I post a question effectively?). Why not contact whoever sold you this perl to see what they recommend regarding a toolchain?	[reply]
