 `-------------------------------------------------

    You'll have to do this from the initial make and set the prefix
    directory accordingly.  So for instance if you want to install in
    your home directory which is /home/sean/ you'll need to do the
    following: 

    perl Makefile.PL PREFIX=/home/sean/ 
    make 
    make install 

    Then you will not need root/admin privileges, you will however need
    to modify @INC to know to look in the directory you choose for the
    library.
