Easy way to install TK on Strawberry PERL ON WINDOWS!!

Thanks to the reply to the post by Felipe (http://erez.wordpress.com/2008/08/11/strawberry-perl-forever/), here are the steps:
  1. Download Tk module from cpan (http://search.cpan.org/~srezic/Tk-804.030/) 
  2. Extract it to a folder. 
  3. Move it to C:\strawberry\perl\lib\ 
  4. Open Command Prompt 
  5. Go to cd C:\strawberry\perl\lib\foldername and pressed enter. 
  6. Then type: perl makefile.pl and pressed enter.. Wait for a few minutes till you see the command prompt. 
  7. Then type dmake test and press Enter. 
  8. Then type dmake install and press Enter.

  2. Wow, thank you so much. Regular CPAN> intall Tk was not working for me. For those n00bs like me, when you download the package from CPAN, it's a tar.gz. You can extract the tar from the gunzip with 7zip (http://www.7-zip.org/) and then extract the files from the tar with the same program.
