The Comprehensive Perl Archive Network
(CPAN)
The CPAN is the world's distributed, replicated repository of
Perl utilities. Unless noted otherwise, you can find everything
in this column on the CPAN. Visit Tom Christiansen's multiplexer
to be redirected to a CPAN site near you:
You'll be able to find the modules under the author's name, at
http://www.perl.com/CPAN/modules/by-authors.
http://www.perl.com/CPAN/modules/INSTALL.html has
instructions on how to build modules on all major operating
systems.
You can also use Andreas König's CPAN module to automatically
install modules. Once you've installed it, perl -MCPAN -e
'install(" modulename")' will automatically download, build,
and install the module for you.
