Modules ordinarily ARE text files. If Net::Ping doesn't use XS (=
compiled in C), then it should work. I don't know this module, but open
that text file, Ping.pm, and see if you can find strings like the module
name "DynaLoader" and the function "bootstrap". If you don't, then
you're in luck. Simply try one of the test scripts, as per the docs.
