    allright... but now i'm getting this message when i try to use the package:

    can't locate loadable object for module Term::ReadKey in @INC.

    i have no idea what that error message means. the package is there... downloaded straight from CPAN. it appears to be some problem with the use statement, because thats whats setting off the error.
    any ideas? is it something wrong with the package?
      Did you install it from CPAN, or just install the .pm file? Term::ReadKey has an XS component that needs to be compiled and installed correctly; that error message means that the compiled shared object couldn't be found. Which means, most likely, that it wasn't installed properly.
        quickinstall won't work from CPAN cause its a windows computer... which means typing make at a dos prompt won't work either. i tried the stty option, but it says that POSIX::ttyname is not implemented. neither is POSIX::termios ... grrr.... could POSIX not be installed on my computer? if so, where can i find it (its not on CPAN). thanks a lot... again.
