There is definitely room for improvement in this script; allowing multiple arguments would be one of the first things to work on. Ironically, given your comment, I started this as a bash script ;-). I then decided that for collecting information on installed Perl modules, perl was the right tool. What you say about implementing the program in bash and awk may be true, but consider that I needed to eval a "require" of a package in the Perl script, and finding a way to duplicate that functionality without using Perl would be somewhat difficult.
