How to Install Perl 6
I am trying to install Perl 6 and try few programs myself. Unlike other Perl distribution, I dont know how to install Perl 6.
If any one you have already installed it and know the steps, please pass it on. Any links and manuals are greatly appreciated.
OS: Windows Vista. (You can add other platform too, perhaps could be helpful for others(
For Windows, the simplest way is to get the latest Parrot (download setup-parrot-2.5.0.exe) and install it, rather than building the whole thing from source.
Then grab the corresponding Rakudo add-on (setup-parrot-2.5.0-rakudo-30.exe) from the same SourceForge project; install that in the same location.
Confirm the "Folder Exists" prompt, and then have a look: you'll have a bin folder in there containing (among other things) perl6.exe
Update
This is now much easier since Rakudo Star was released.
You can download an MSI installer from http://github.com/rakudo/star/downloads, which installs Rakudo in C:\Rakudo
(There's no option to install it anywhere else though.)
Fedora 14 will include it in the repos so you will be able to simply install it from the package manager.
