If you have ActiveState perl then you would use 'ppm' to download and
install a module.
If you want to install it yourself then you follow the normal perl install
procedure
download the module (you have done this)
uncompress it (you have done this)
change to the dir that it uncompressed to
and do the following commands verify there
are no errors for each step
perl makefile.PL
make
make test
make install
The 'make' command will vary depending on which make you have installed. If
you have MS VC++ then it will be nmake.
