Thanks John for detailed explanation!!
I just dont' understand why \ (also didn't know that within [ ], \ has
to be escaped.) needs to be watch out for within " " ..
\ use can be tricky, for example:
$ perl -le"print 'hello'"
hello
$ perl -le"print 'he\llo'"
he\llo

In the case of:
my_function "foo", "bar";
my_function is a list operator which has a very low precedence so the
parentheses are not required.
Sometimes, i.e. if the sub is not predeclared, they are required.
C:\home>type test.pl
my_function "foo", "bar";
sub my_function

This file will always consist of the same lines, but t
you can use hash,where key is the column and value is the refrence to an

I have always avoided the "Program Files" default directory when
installing anything with a Unix flavor to it. For Perl, everything gets
installed at "D:\perl", just to avoid this problem. Even Microsoft
applications don't all know how to handle paths with spaces. It was not

So it seems. You may want to try other methods to install the module.
