    As this is not your machine, ideally you set up your own Perl to install modules in.

    But as you are just starting out to get your feel around the computer and running Perl programs, maybe there is somebody you can ask to install modules into the system Perl for you?

    I think basically App::perlbrew should set you up without further ado.

      Man, I appreciate the help.

        Duh, sorry - it just occurred to me, there is another, maybe easier way, local::lib, which uses your system Perl but installs the new modules under your user, Eric.

    Ultra short version: cpanm AcmeModule. In your script below the shebang: use AcmeModule qw (coolSub); or what ever. Search in the Perl documentation. For a harder version for step one please see perlbrew. Very recommended. Use Super Search for more insights about all this stuff. Feel free to ask in case of trouble. It is also recommended to show some effort.
