"There are two ways of constructing a software design; one way is to make it so simple
that there are obviously no deficiencies, and the other way is to make it so
complicated that there are no obvious deficiencies. The first method is far more
difficult."

If you have to type "perl command.pl" at the command-line, then you
probably don't have your Perl install path in your system's PATH
variable. Try this:
1. Right-click on My Computer and select Properties.
2. On the Advanced Tab, click the Environment Variables button.
3. In the system variables, find PATH.
4. Append C:\Perl\bin to the path variable and save.
5. Any open programs will be updated with the current environment, but
if you have any console windows open you will have to close and re-open
them.
Note: I did this on WinXP, you may have to use the Performance Tab or
button on Windows 2000 instead of Advanced, I think. I don't have one
here to check on.

I have also downloaded activestate's perl. But I find it frustrating
that i have to type perl command.pl at the command line.
