+Review the C<cat-install> documentation from the

+    
+    If you want to get started quickly with Catalyst, Shadowcat provides an 
+    installer script that will automate most of the process of installing it 
+    for you. Please bear in mind that this script is currently considered 
+    beta quality; we don't think it will eat your system but we make no 
+    guarantee of that.
+    
+    First, you'll need -
+    
+        * Perl, 5.8.1+ (if you're on windows, get it from Active State)
+        * make of some sort. On unix/linux you should already have one. On 
+            windows get nmake from Microsoft.
+        * A compiler. On unix/linux you should already have one. On windows, 
+            get the latest Dev-C++ beta.
+        * All three of the above in your PATH for whatever shell you're using
+        * A configured CPAN.pm. perl -MCPAN -e shell should get CPAN to walk 
+            you through the configuration process
+        * Module::Build. Active State kindly include this for you.
+    
+    Ok, now that your environment is set up, download the installer from 
+    this link, open a command prompt in the directory you downloaded it to 
+    and run perl cat-install. By the time it exits, you should have a full 
+    Catalyst install.
+    
+    If anything goes wrong, please send the full build log and the output of 
+    perl -V to cat-install (at) shadowcatsystems.co.uk so we can try and 
+    resolve your issue.
