If you got it in a tar'ed package, it will come with a Makefile.PL script.
The general procedure is:

perl Makefile.PL
make test
make install {su'ed to root}


If you didn't get the tar'ed package, and just have xxxx.pm, then I would
recommend getting the tar'ed package instead.  This would vary somewhat if
you're on a Windows NT box.

Subject: Loading extra modules.




Folks, how do I load extra modules? I got Date::Manip today, and I know I
should be putting it in the search-path of perl (@INC ?), but how do I do
it? Can I get a small code snippet? 

I do not have su privileges on the machine I work, and would like the
search-path to have my modules dir, $HOME/perlmodules in it. 

TIA, 
-tir
