windows compatibility

I've been able to get the first example in the documentation to compile and run on my Win2k laptop...

Just use ppm to install Math::BaseCnv and Algorithm::ChooseSubsets then, create the directory tree C:\Perl\site\lib\Games\Cards and put the Poker.pm file out of the tgz into that directory.

What's wrong with installing it the CPAN way?

perl Makefile.PL make make test make install

I am always wary of instructions to copy a .pm file into the lib directory tree. You will never know what you have forgotten to do.

Oops, should be nmake in the case of Windows.
