You can obtain for yourself the answer, try and run

use warnings;
use xml::simple;
[download]

If is not installed still, perl probably will show something like this:

Can't locate xml/simple.pm

Also see Re: use Strict: a rigorous way to break my command line variables?. If XML::Simple is installed, `use xml::simple;` on Windows will not raise an error related to `xml::simple` or `XML::Simple`: `>perl -Mxml::simple -e "XMLin()" Undefined subroutine &main::XMLin called at -e line 1. >perl -MXML::Simple -e "XMLin()" Could not find -e.xml in .\ at -e line 1` [download] Because file systems on Windows are generally case insensitive, you can load modules under various names. As package names under Perl still are case sensitive, their `->import()` method will not be called, which is confusing. In my opinion, it would have been more helpful to directly tell the OP that there is no module `xml::simple`.	[reply] [d/l] [select]
