Note that there's the cpan script also: install a module: $ cpan Foo::Bar or start the cpan shell: $ cpan To install a module, you'll have to have the make package installed (by cygwin's setup.exe program; it's in the Devel category). To install a module with xs components, you'll need at least the gcc package. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
