It looks like you can use ppm. Here is how I did it.
1. run cmd
2. create a directory named perl in your profile's directory
(C:\documents and settings\user)
3. run ppm
4. at the prompt type "target set root <DIR>" where <DIR> is the perl
directory you just created (example: target set root
C:\DOCUME~1\COWENS~1.ISP\perl)
5. type "install <PACKAGE>" where <PACKAGE> is the name of the module
you want installed
6. type "quit"
7. enjoy the moduley goodness
You will probably need to set PERLLIB environmental variable to the
newly create path or hard code the path in with 'use lib' in the
scripts.
