How to install Bioperl in window xp

Bioperl is a collection of modules which can be used in Perl for sequence data analysis. When you have installed ActiveState perl (in the previous exercise), the Perl Package Manager is at your disposal. 
  • Go to start -> Run..., and in the window you type 'ppm'.
  • The PPM window opens. It shows you which perl modules have been installed, and which are available but are not installed. You can also delete perl modules from here.
  • To install Bioperl, you have to add the Bioperl repository. List of repositories and their links are available below
