perl -e 'print join "\n", @INC;'
[download]

use lib "lib";
[download]

just copy it anywhere where perl is looking ( @INC ).

No, place it here in the directory output by the following:

perl -V:installsitelib
[download]

---

Or create "lib" directory next to your script and use lib "lib";

No, that won't always work before 5.26 (because it assumes the CWD is the script's directory), and it introduces a security vulnerability in setuid scripts. You want:

use FindBin qw( $RealBin );
use lib "$RealBin/lib";
[download]

perl -e "print join "\n", @INC;
[download]

Are you sure double quotes can be nested?

perl -e "print join qq(\n), @INC"
[download]

($q=q:Sq=~/;[c](.)(.)/;chr(-||-|5+lengthSq)`"S|oS2"`map{chr |+ord
}map{substrSq`S_+|`|}3E|-|`7**2-3:)=~y+S|`+$1,++print+eval$q,q,a,
[download]

Fixed. It's a pita. Too many shells with differing quoting mechanisms :)

You can lead your users to water, but alas, you cannot drown them.

If the modules is a pure Perl one (no XS code) and was not packaged at all to be distributed you simply put thw .pm file in the appropriate directory that for a strawberry perl installation can be similar to c:\strawberryperl\site\lib

If the module just define a package like MyNewShinyMod the above path will be enough. By other hand if the module define a package like My::NewShinyMod you need to create a folder named My in the above path and put the .pm file there.
