+4. Dynamic loading					*perl-dynamic*
+
+On MS-Windows the Perl library can be loaded dynamically.  The |:version|
+output then includes |+perl/dyn|.
+
+This means that Vim will search for the Perl DLL file only when needed.  When
+you don't use the Perl interface you don't need it, thus you can use Vim
+without this DLL file.
+
+To use the Perl interface the Perl DLL must be in your search path.  In a
+console window type "path" to see what directories are used.
+
+The name of the DLL must match the Perl version Vim was compiled with.
+Currently the name is "perl58.dll".  That is for Perl 5.8.  To know for
+sure edit "gvim.exe" and search for "perl\d*.dll\c".
