I am a huge fan of perl scripting language and I have scripts that I want to run on Windows and I use ActiveState’s ActivePerl
During installation, do not change any of the settings, just take all of the default settings and install.
ActivePerl comes with a great tool to manage modules – Perl Package Manager(PPM)
Here is PPM repository for PerlMagick: http://www.bribes.org/perl/
Here are some of the perl modules that I install for my own use:
Image/Magick.pm
Image/ExifTool.pm
Also jhead.exe is needed for JPEG header manipulation – http://www.sentex.net/~mwandel/jhead/
ImageMagick(http://www.imagemagick.org/) also needs to be installed. I had no luck with Dynamic Link Library due to the mogrify.exe giveing “Wrong JPEG library version: library is 70, caller expects 80″… I had to use Static build binary…
