/It gives everything./

Ha, ain't that the truth.  I can go to the

    Use the command ‘perl -V’ (that is a capital V) to see where your
    perl installation looks for modules to load. The source file for
    Finance::Quote (Quote.pm) needs to be in a directory Finance
    somewhere in that path.

    You can install modules without using the cpan utility program.

    First, download the module distribution from www.cpan.org
    <http://www.cpan.org>. Then use these commands:

    perl Makefile.PL
    make
    make test
    make install

    (You may need to preface the last command with ’sudo’)
