Again: yes. Look up the module Img::Size in CPAN (e.g. www.cpan.org).

You need to tweak it a little, to get it to work: first, as always,
replace Unix newlines with Mac CR's. Move the file "Size.pm" to a folder
"Img" in a folder that is in your @INC (see MacPerl's preferences
screen), for example "Lib" or "site_perl" in MacPerl's folder.

But, the script unnecessarily depends upon Autoload. You must remove the
mentions of this in the module, and remove the line "__END__" just below
sub img_eof(). That ought to do the trick. It has worked before.
