Maybe come up with a Bundle:: module that contains all of your
dependencies, so I don't have to keep hitting <Enter> in order to get
the CPAN shell to install the next set of dependent modules.

In any case, the modules I list here:

http://code.google.com/p/camelbox/wiki/BuildExternalApps

require a 'force install' in the CPAN shell under Windows because
their tests are failing for whatever reason.  I didn't spend a lot of
time trying to figure out why said tests were failing however.

Edit the .bat file and put a 'pause' command after every call to
perl.exe.  Maybe you'll catch the error message that way.

This is as far as I got:

C:\camelbox\bin>pp --gui --icon C:/camelbox/bin/wperl.exe -l libCairoPerl.dll -l
 libgthread-2.0-0.dll -o C:\temp\asciio.exe -l C:\camelbox\site\lib\auto\Cairo\C
airo.dll -l C:\camelbox\site\lib\auto\Glib\Glib.dll -l C:\camelbox\site\lib\auto
\Gtk2\Gtk2.dll -M Win32::Console -M Tie::Hash::NamedCapture -M Gtk2 asciio

Thanks,
