Just try it. `>perl -e"use Data::Dumper" >perl -e"use Data::Flumper" Can't locate Data/Flumper.pm in @INC (@INC contains ...) at -e line 1. BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at -e line 1.` [download] A quick way to check the version is to require a high version. `>perl -e"use Data::Dumper 99" Data::Dumper version 99 required--this is only version 2.121_14 at -e +line 1. BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at -e line 1.` [download]	[reply] [d/l] [select]

Assuming you know the name of the module, and assuming a *nix OS: `$ perl -MXML::Twig -e 1` [download] will return nothing if XML::Twig is installed, or it will complain if it is not installed. See perlrun.	[reply] [d/l]
