[Haskell-beginners] Using The Cabal that comes with GHC 6.10 on Windows

Hi, I'm sure this should be very simple, but I can't find any obvious documentation in the GHC doco that tells me how to get started with Cabal. I've installed GHC 6.10.1, which comes with Cabal. However, it doesn't seem to come in executable form ? So, I'm not sure what I need to do - build the executable, presumably ? I could download the prebuilt executable version of Cabal, but it seems pointless to include it in GHC, and then go download another one. Sorry for this stupid question ! Could anyone give me a hint on how to proceed ? Thanks ! :)
