  20. @keithzg #ActiveState is now focused on being its customers’ single source for scripting runtimes paired with a desired mix of additional libraries to include. As you’ve discovered, you have to manage it all through them very bureaucratically.

    On #Windows, your best bet is either #StrawberryPerl or the #Perl that comes with Microsoft #Windows Subsystem for #Linux distributions. The latter is more up-to-date, though Strawberry has almost caught back up.

  21. @jesse @genehack @d #ActiveState knew no fear—they made a #Microsoft Active Scripting (formerly #ActiveX Scripting) engine called #PerlScript. You could use it in #Windows Scripting Host or embed #Perl in HTML <script> tags that #InternetExplorer would run if the machine had PerlScript installed.

    I don’t know if their hosted ActiveState Platform will build it for you now, though.

  26. So ActiveState has changed the licensing on their products from free to paid, including for old versions, including those you had downloaded and installed before they blogged about that change back in 2021. Other than that blog post they didn't inform anybody of that change. I'm not even sure you can change licensing conditions after someone has installed your product and accepted the license conditions.

  27. @ovid @fuzzix (#ActiveState’s solution is a *little* more involved than that because it spins up project-specific language environments. So it’s more like #Carton + #perlbrew in the #Perl world.)

  28. @ovid @fuzzix I don’t do #Windows #Perl either, but the main thing is you use #ActiveState’s package manager instead of #StrawberryPerl’s full inclusion of #CPAN support and a C compiler toolchain

  29. @fuzzix @ovid And there’s always #ActiveState #Perl v5.36, but it has a pretty onerous free usage limit of one copy running at a time: activestate.com/products/perl/
