The portable PPM

The PPM is great for managing packages, but I have a new problem now... I want to duplicate the Perl installation I have here at work onto my home computer, because I do alot of work at home.
 
Is there a way I can 'zip up' my installed modules and take them with me? Perhaps there is a way to generate a script that would DL and install the modules in the new location?
 
Has anyone else dealt with this problem?
 
TIA,
 
Barry Brevik

Just zip whole perl directory (C:\Perl) and extract it on your home
computer. If you have some dll files for modules (like ImageMagick), you
may want to copy or install them too.
