[Dxspider-support] windows spider install

[Anthony (N2KI)]

To upgrade to the latest PERL version, do we just run the EXE file and it
will install over the current installed version?  Or is there a specific
procedure to follow?  Thanks for the help.

Anthony

I understand that you are using an activestate 5.6.1 perl. You will be 
*much* better off using the latest 5.8.8 build (er.. 819?) and the 
version of ppm that that build uses. It also gives you the opportunity 
to try the gtkconsole...
