Not sure you saw my reply on your G+ post so here it is again: # --------------------------- Some notes from installing on windows 7 (ultimate, 64bit, SP1). Installation was fast and painless, Strawberry Perl 5.12.3 installed was the version installed, verified with "perl -V". Padre starts up fine, however the interface is in Hebrew and there is no setting to change the language the English - very annoying :-( There were links to 3 games installed under the "DWIM Perl" start menu group, all 3 are broken links to .bat files. The "Related websites" links all worked correctly except the "Padre Website" link which was also a broken link. The cpan link worked fine (opened a cmd.exe window with an open cpan shell) and I was able to run the "r" command and upgrade a random module. There were coincidentally quite a few modules that needed upgrading, but I guess that's unavoidable due to the age of the release. The "Perl (command line)" link OTOH opens only a normal cmd.exe link so I'm not sure there's any added value in having it. It would be nice if the cmd.exe window which opens for both cpan and others was automatically in quickedit mode. Not important (since the link can easily be edited manually) but nice to have. # --------------------------- Cheers, Offer _______________________________________________ Padre-dev mailing list Padre-dev@perlide.org http://mail.perlide.org/mailman/listinfo/padre-dev
