That CamelPack makes Perl on Windows easy [simon-cozens.org].

I tried the windows installer and it failed to install, but I was going to try it on another machine before I told anyone that it didn't work for me. It also looks like there's enough information on the CamelPack [stennie.org] site to try and install manually in case it's just some odd Installer problem.

  And indeed the CamelPack is almost the ideal short term solution.
  
  For anyone currently wanting to do Windows developer, for now you should be using that.
  
  Vanilla -> Strawberry is more of a "CamelPack done right", without taking all the shortcuts. Better for the long term, even if it doesn't work now.

    Oh, I see now. Both Vanilla Perl [sourceforge.net] and Strawberry Perl [sourceforge.net] are part of the CamelPack Project [sourceforge.net].
    
    I thought this sounded like the same thing that I'd just read about on Simon's Blog...
