I see.  I wasn't thinking about not having MacPerl installed.  That is your
real problem.  What I said is still correct: "If the module is in the right
place in the Perl filetree ... ."  But theproblem is you don't have Perl,
and therefore no filetree.

Personally, I suggest doing just what you said you don't want to do:
install MacPerl on all those Macs.  It is very easy to install.  I had a
non-programmer friend install it so I could write a script for him, and he
had absolutely no problems.  However, you might have your reasons for not
wanting to do that.

I can't think of an easy way to make it work.  Sorry,
