Nice save. I'm sure your back on Matt's Xmas list now. :-) I've come up with a solution through inspecting the docs and code snipping the Makefile from a perl module and a bit of experimentation. I was just hoping there might be a one page tutorial out there somewhere to get me started. It seemed logical to me that CPAN might have a tutorial on the basics of authoring Perl mods, but I couldn't find it. I promise to write one right after I write my first mod that I put on CPAN. :-) I have one in the back of my head for DBI, but alas it will be awhile...
