A script to find modules in the paths listed in "@INC". The user can specify the full module name or just part of it or even use a regex if passed in quotes (i.e. findINC 'File.*')
I find this to be a useful script when trying to determine if I've got a particular module loaded up, but I can't help but feel I'm reinventing the wheel... Is there another way to do this?

# Re-substitute "/" with "::" for printing purposes

}
}
