I've done a number of google searches on how to install a module (I'm running Mac OS X). Here are some of the places I've gone

Tk module installation by cpan

Cannot install CPAN (or any other modules) as root user!!!

But none of the advice helps. I can't get anything up an running. I just get the message
Warning: Cannot install Bundle::Tk, don't know what it is.
For the second link provided above, I'm not sure at all what the recommendations mean. I don't know how to configure cpan. I don't know whether those are lines to be written into a particular file or run from the command line (I tried running them from the command line and got an error -bash: o: command not found)

Could someone walk me through baby steps please?
