Easy.

Now, the same steps don't work. I've used both the ppm gui and the command
line.
Everything seems to install just fine, but no pp is anywhere on my system.


A similar problem happened recently to a co-worker of mine. For
some reason, he just didn't have the "pp" executable anywhere in his
%PATH%.

He eventually fixed the problem by going to the Perl Package
Manager and adding a new repository. Then he was able to successfully
install PAR with the command:

ppm install PAR

As to which repository he added, I am not sure. Perhaps someone
here can give a good repository to add, or maybe Googling around a bit
can help.

If you get it to work by adding a new repository, let me know what
you added.

Thanks.
