-NAME
- PLP - Perl in HTML pages
+PLP - PERL IN HTML PAGES
-MODULE INSTALLATION
+PLP is yet another Perl embedder, primarily for HTML documents. Unlike
+with other Perl embedders, there is no need to learn a meta-syntax or
+object model: one can just use the normal Perl constructs. PLP runs
+under FastCGI and mod_perl for speeds comparable to those of PHP, but
+can also be run as a standard CGI script.
+
+INSTALLATION
+
+To install this module, run the following commands:
perl Makefile.PL
make
+ make test
make install
