title: Which version of Perl should I use on Windows?
body: <p>The <a href="http://win32.perl.org/" rel="noreferrer">win32.perl.org</a> web site provides references to several Perl distributions for MS Windows.</p>
  
  <p>For a long time I have been using ActivePerl from 
  <a href="http://www.activestate.com/" rel="noreferrer">ActiveState</a> but recently I switched to 
  <a href="http://strawberryperl.com/" rel="noreferrer">Strawberry Perl</a>.</p>
  
  <p>IMHO The only advantage that Active Perl still has over Strawberry Perl is the fact that it comes with Perl Tk which means its easy to install 
  <a href="http://search.cpan.org/dist/Devel-ptkdb/" rel="noreferrer">Devel::ptkdb</a> the graphical debugger. Other than that, I think Strawberry Perl has all the advantages.</p>
