&lt;p&gt;Dear monks,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Since I need to install a lot of Activestate-Perl-Modules by PPM, I am just writing a little setup script which works fine. Just one problem: it is by far too slow, since I install perl and a lot of modules on a network filesystem. Building html requires lots of time. I searched perlmonks and even google for an answer, but still haven't found what I've been looking for.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;
Q:\downloads\ppm-modules&gt;ppm install Win32-Env-0.03.ppmx&lt;br/&gt;
Unpacking Win32-Env-0.03...done&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Generating HTML for Win32-Env-0.03...done&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br/&gt;
Updating files in site area...done&lt;br/&gt;
   2 files installed
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Generating HTML takes up to 5 minutes per module.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Do you know a way to prevent generation of HTML documentation after installation of each single module with &lt;code&gt;ppm install modulename.ppdx&lt;/code&gt; ?&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;/p&gt;I can create the documentation at the end with something like &lt;code&gt;perl -MActivePerl::DocTools -e "UpdateHTML('wait')"&lt;/code&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</field>
