Well My computer here doesn't have perl on it (work computer), my laptop doesn't have internet. So I'm stuck. I'll try to install it from my home desktop then and look at the pm and save the .pm on a floppy. I never used CPAN yet... nor ppm thingy. I am running win2k, I hope it won't be a pain in the "455".
In fact, my concern is that the Image::size module can read several types of files, and I only need to read for two types, so I'd like to strip out all the junk and keep the code minimal. Would this gain speed? Or it's unuseful to take parts of existant modules to keep only what we will really use?
