The usual way to install modules is to run 'cpan': [EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# cpan cpan shell -- CPAN exploration and modules installation (v1.76) ReadLine support enabled
cpan>install Your::Module:Here . . (dowloads the module, builds, tests and installs it) . . . cpan> quit You can look for a module using 'i /text/' and cpan will show you anything it matches 'text'. '?' will provide you help. If it does not work you can always go to cpan.org and look at all the modules there waiting to be picked up.
