No worries.  I usually go to cpan.org.

Here is the direct link to the info page. Lots of good details on how it 
works.

http://search.cpan.org/~eryq/Convert-BinHex-1.119/lib/Convert/BinHex.pm

Here is where you can download the source

Hello,

Thanks for all the help and info. After downloading the tarball I ran, 'perl
Makefile.PL', and 'make', then 'make install', but I am not sure if this is
all I need to do. When running the install from CPAN so much more seems to
take place (as far as the verbose output on the terminal shows). Below is
the output from tarball build. Is this everything for an install or am I
missing something? 

Thanks again for your help.
