I don't know how to install those libraries. It's not Perl and I can only find resources for Unix. :-(

Bwaaah, boo hoo hooo, waaaah

:D

Here is a guide     http://ingar.satgnu.net/devenv/mingw32/base.html    

It won't tell you where to download these two particular ones, but the same instructions can apply

And tab completion doesn't work with Term::ReadLine::Perl either.

I do believe history, the alternative cavac was presenting uses arrow keys (up/down)

For me, with arrow keys, his example cycles through a history list (the program source, since i typed it in interactively, perl - )
