Re: PadWalker for Windows Solution

I wanted to build an awesome place for people to discuss module specific issues, but I don't have any more time for this, and there are much better places to discuss Perl-related issues. I'd recommend asking your question on Stack Overflow or on Perl Monks.
If you are looking for a Perl tutorial or Perl-related news, I hope these links will serve you well.

I could able to install the Padwalker sucessfully on Windows XP (Running Perl 5.8.x), I followed:
1) Downloaded the PadWalker.ppd from http://www.bribes.org/perl/ppm/ And it saved under C:\Perl, but default it saved as .htm extension so I have renames the extension to .ppd (so the file name becomes C:\Perl\PadWalker.ppd)
And then ran
2) C:\Perl# ppm install PadWalker.ppd
it gave error "ppm install failed: No file at C:\Perl\PadWalker-1.92-PPM58.tar.gz"
Then I have downloaded the file PadWalker-1.92-PPM58.tar.gz from http://www.bribes.org/perl/ppm/ and saved it into C:\Perl and again ran:
C:\Perl# ppm install PadWalker.ppd
