I have been assigned to submit a resume for an application to a school using 
Markdown. They gave me this link: http://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/ 
with the following instructions: "Your resume, written in Markdown and 
submitted as a GitHub Gist." I've visted the link and downloaded Markdown. When 
it didn't have a way to "install" like typical software, I revisited the site 
and I downloaded Perl 5.22.00. I've also downloaded CPAN 
(http://search.cpan.org/dist/Digest-MD5/MD5.pm). Now there is a little blue 
icon in the Markdown folder, but all it opens is a black box. It doesn't open 
something that should look like this 
(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oba3Czjyras). I've watched a couple of 
tutorials on how to use it and it's fairly simple. I understand all the 
'coding' I need to use. The problem is figuring out how to install the 
software. I'm not an IT person. I'm good at using programs, not fixing them or 
understanding things out-of-the-ordinary computer installations. Can someone 
please give me some direction (using layman's terms) to get this up and moving? 
Thank you very much for your help. I am using a Windows 7 computer.
