Ah... thank-you.

Well, not yet.  But I see this as a fine opportunity to learn a little.

Perl's a language I've only ever read about, never written any code in. Time
I learned a little more I think.  I can see I'll need to brush-up on regex
for a start, as patterns seem to pervade perl code.  But it's still more
readable than APL, which is a classic 'write once, never understand again'
programming language.

It's clear that someone has gone to a lot of trouble to make the standard
installer/method as easy to use as possible for people who aren't willing to
fight their way through software configurations, but I prefer to know what's
where and why.  Thank-you for the pointer.
