Change the '::' separator to '-', ie: ppm install Spreadsheet-WriteExcel

If you're running from the ppm prompt, you can search then install by the number of the result.

What an awkward sentence that was! I'll just paste a screenshot:

ppm> search WriteExcel Searching in Active Repositories 1. Spreadsheet-WriteEx~ [0.41] (none) 2. Spreadsheet-WriteEx~ [0.42] Write to a cross platform Excel binar +y file 3. Spreadsheet-WriteEx~ [0.42] Write to a cross platform Excel binar +y file 4. Spreadsheet-WriteEx~ [0.09] Convert a database table to an Excel +spreadsh~ 5. Spreadsheet-WriteEx~ [1.01] Create Excel Spreadsheet from XML 6. Spreadsheet-WriteEx~ [1.02] Create Excel Spreadsheet from XML 7. Spreadsheet-WriteEx~ [1.02] Create Excel Spreadsheet from XML 8. Spreadsheet-WriteEx~ [0.03] A simple single-sheet Excel document ppm> install 6

    Don't think that'll work. I can't even get past the

    search Spreadsheet::WriteExcel

    Even using

    search spreadsheet

    doesn't give me anything.
