It's just a nit, but perl -MPAR::Dist -e"install_par( 'http://backpan.perl.org/authors/id/S/SM/SMUELLER/PAR-Packer-0.976-MSWin32-x86-multi-thread-5.8.8.par' ); will work just fine. (Aaah, all the magic Audrey has put in! :) In fact, that exact .par package should automatically be fetched if you don't have a C compiler handy and try to install PAR::Packer via the CPAN shell.
