    ~~
  \item \Verb+install.zip+ for all systems\\
    \uncover<2-2>{supports all systems, but ships Perl for \acro{W32}}
  \item \acro{W32}: double-click the \url{.bat} file\\
    \uncover<3-3>{or start it from a cmd shell for additional arguments}
  \item Unix: \url{./install-tl}\\
    \uncover<4-4>{and add arguments if you need them}
