I tried using the StayOnTop.pm module, but I must be doing something wrong. I'm on Perl 5.8.0 so I assume I must use Win32::API. I downloaded API.pm into the ...\lib\Win32 directory. I also downloaded StayOnTop.pm into the ..\lib\Tk directory.

I now have the following at the beginning of my code: 

use Tk;
use Win32::API;
use Tk::StayOnTop;
use IO::Socket;
use IO::Select;

[download]

I updated the @INC to point to the Win32 directory. However, whenever, I attempt to run the program I keep getting the message:

Can't locate loadable object for module Win32::API in @INC (@INC conta
+ins: C:\Perl\site\lib\Win32 C:\Perl\site\lib C:\Perl\site\lib\Win32\A
+PI c:/Perl/lib c:/Perl/site/lib .) at smalllights.pl line 13

[download]

I am not sure which loadable object is causing the problem. Is it possible that I need another module?
