in reply to Installing modules on Mac OS X

Do you have make installed?

You likely need to install the developer tools, which are on the OS disk, but not installed by default. And don't forget to install the "BSD Subsystem", so you'll have the perl header files.

    I'm sorry being noob here, how can I check if I have make installed?

      From the command line, type:

      which make

      You should get back a response such as /usr/bin/make. If you get back nothing, it's a sign that the system can't figure out where make is installed. You should be able to do a 'which gcc' as well.

      I installed gcc4.0 from the disk and all the other additional developer's tools. I restarted the computer and tried to install Spreadsheet::WriteExcel via Terminal. No luck, same errors as before. What should I do, please help.
