#### Linux:
On linux, don't have module (reason: 'Can't locate Win32/TieRegistry.p
+m in @INC (you may need to install the Win32::TieRegistry module) (@I
+NC contains: ...) at (eval 1) line 1.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at (eval 1) line 1.')
Continuing program...
### Windows:
Have module
<...>
<...>
...
Continuing program...
(Update: Note that as opposed to several of the other solutions here, this uses slightly different logic: if Win32::TieRegistry is available, it is used no matter which OS this is being run on; otherwise, if it's not available, that's only a fatal error if this is being run on Windows. Of course that logic can be changed, my point was mostly to show the my $have_module = eval q{ use Module; 1 }; technique.)

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
