use Perl

  I still don't see where the difficulty is [perl.org]. You can skip the "Set up $ENV{PATH}" step in the setup for other locations (like, say, C:\Program Files\Strawberry Perl) and supply a batch file that sets up a "Perl Console" which has the correct $ENV{PATH}:

  @echo off
  SET BASE=%~dp0
  path %BASE%\perl\bin;%BASE%\mingw\bin;%BASE%\dmake\bin;%PATH%
  echo "Strawberry Perl Console launched."
  %COMSPEC%

    I second this. Let me decide where I want to put it and what to name the install directory.
