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

ACK! Bad plan. This will probably give you an older version of PAR. It
would be much better to install the current versions of PAR and
PAR-Packer from the AS repo.
