If Strawberry Perl and F::Q are installed correctly then run following in a command prompt in Windows OS: C:\Strawberry\perl\bin\cpan.bat https://www.cpan.org/authors/id/B/BP/BPSCHUCK/Finance-Quote-1.64_03.tar.gz Note that there is a space between ‘.bat’ and ‘https:’ incase cut-&-paste munges is up.

I have downloaded the F::Q 1.64_03 file but not sure what to do with it. Is there an installation program or do I have to use the command prompts to manually install?
