Microsoft Windows and the Apple Macintosh are Evil, proprietary platforms and
we must not support them! Just kidding here.
Yes, we should support them too, but I have a very limited experience building
packages for Windows (mostly using CMake's wrappers for NSIS) and none for the
Macintosh. I think that if you're using Strawberry Perl then you should be
able to install SDL_perl from CPAN or wherever, the normal way. And Mac OS X
is mostly Unix-compatible so there shouldn't be a problem there either.

God gave us two eyes and ten fingers so we will type five times as much as we
read.
