I am debating whether to just install some scripts when users install my modules from CPAN.
I can't see many of the installations being by people who want to work with the modules rather than the scripts. But what if they have an executable of the same name that is clobbered by one of my scripts? Is it enough just to tell them in the README? Would that really be enough? They probably don't know what executables they have. And I don't know how to find out. I don't really want to ask them in the installation process. It seems there is no good solution. Should I just let them install them? They probably don't know how. I don't really want to find out how to install executables in Windows. I guess it means putting them on the desktop somewhere. Perhaps I'll say, you've got to know a little about perl if you want to use this stuff.
