First, are you sure that the module isn't already on your system? Try
C<perl -MFoo -e 1>. (Replace "Foo" with the name of the module; for
-instance, C<perl -MCGI::Carp -e 1>.
+instance, C<perl -MCGI::Carp -e 1>.)
If you don't see an error message, you have the module. (If you do
see an error message, it's still possible you have the module, but
install modules into any directory you wish. For instance, where I

First, type C<ppm> from a shell and see whether ActiveState's PPM
repository has your module. If so, you can install it with C<ppm> and
