[MacPerl] Installing modules.

[Dave Johnson <dave_johnson@ieee.org>]

I'm having trouble understanding how to install modules. I've downloaded
PBar, AppleEvents-Simple, and AppleEvents-Launch. Take the AppleEvents-Simple
folder it contains:

Makefile.PL   <== which page 165 of "MacPerl Power and Ease" tells me to
ignore
MANIFEST      <== a list of files in the folder
README        <== BBEdit document.
Simple.pm     <== with generic icon
test.pl       <== with MacPerl icon, to verify it is installed correctly??!

Now the "Simple.pm" is the interesting one. I can't open it with MacPerl
but when I force it open with BBEdit, I can see it is a Perl document.
(Shuck cannot open it either, although it clearly has shuck directives.)

It looks like this should be the module, but as Macperl cannot open it I
can't get it to use it.

What am I doing wrong?

Dave
