Publisher's description
From ActiveState :The ActivePerl package represents the most significant advance in Perl on 32-bit Windows platforms since version 5.0 was released. This is the long-awaited "merge" of the two popular Perl ports, and it has the best of both, plus more: a merge of ActiveState Perl Object technology into core Perl; support for standard extension mechanisms like MakeMaker; easy installation and management of modules and extensions with Perl Package Manager; binaries for most CPAN modules, available from ActiveState's repository (including TK and GD); updated FAQs; and complete, integrated online help in HTML. A complete list of what has changed since the 300-series builds of Perl for Windows can be found here.
The ActivePerl package has all you'll need to get Perl up and running, even with a Web server. It includes Perl for Windows; the binary of the core Perl distribution; Perl for ISAPI, an IIS plug-in that makes Perl CGI lightning fast; PerlScript, an ActiveX scripting engine with a Perl brain; and the Perl Package Manager, a Perl extension installer and manager.
Note to Perl Resource Kit, Win32 Edition users: If you have the Perl Resource Kit installed, you'll need the PRK Service Pack 1 to update ActivePerl. Do not download and install these files.
