Hi! I just want to mention that you could also surf to http://www.cpan.org and download and install it manually. This might be helpful when you're behind a nasty firewall, an you have a hard time configuring CPAN.pm to use it, or when you want to use a download manager to fetch pachages, etc. But personally, I like the CPAN shell much better. It'll keep track of module dependencies, give you a list of updated packages (via the 'r' command), and once you're used to it, you'll love it. So long,
