A seed needs soft soil and water to grow
This is a reply to
szabgab's post on how to get newbies interested in Perl modules. Being a newbie in Perl myself I thought I should take a shot.

Rome was not built,
+in one day,
feature creep,

existed back then too.

kmx++ recently worked on a brand new Build system for Alien::SDL and SDL_perl. We have managed to test it in Windows and Linux environments. We would still appreciate testing on all environments. However none of us have a shiny Mac to try this on. So if you have a Mac please consider testing the following:
+
- Download Alien::SDL
+
+- install it
+- select build by source
+
+- Download SDL::perl
+
+- Extract it
+- perl Build.PL
+- perl Build
+- See if Bundling works ( Maybe Brian's article may help )
+
Thank you very much!
-I was thinking you can make projects more accessible to newbies by having a step by step plan included with where they need to look. For example for docs of SDL_perl:
-
- Look at SDL docs [link]
-- See where SDL_perl is using the same functions [link] and the docs to this file [link]
-- Use the pod format to add it to the source [link to using pod]
-- {BONUS} Come up with tutorial or cookbook [link to example]
-- Submit code to github [link] or email them to me [link]

-Basically assume nothing is known. I know this may seem demeaning but I am a newbie to Perl and sometimes I hate looking for crust (docs). I call it crust because a crust is useful for me to eat a pizza slice, but it has no flavor .

After some reports back we have found out that SDL_gfx needs

We are working to get this done.
