+
+This directory contains a subset of the Perl 5.8.8 distribution
+for Windows. The only purpose of this package is to support programs
+shipped with TeX Live. It's not intended for general use.
+
+The executable files were compiled by Siep Kroonenberg with MinGW.
+
+Changes:
+
+ * The documentation and many modules have been removed.
+
+ * Some Windows specific modules have been added.
+
+This version of Perl will not be installed on your system and will not
+interfere with other versions of Perl which might be installed already.
+
+If you need Perl for any other purpose than running the programs
+provided by TeX Live, we recommand to install the full version which
+can be downloaded from:
+
+ http://www.perl.org
