Hi, thanks for pointing this out. I should make the dependencies explicit at least in the README, but to be clear they are: XML::Twig Text::Format The other modules I depend on are (almost?) always installed by default, at least in every Perl installation I've seen recently: Pod::Usage Sys::Hostname; IO::File; POSIX; You don't say what platform you are using so I can't tell you exactly how to get any missing modules installed for your situation, but here's a stab at it: Debian names the packages for Perl modules something like lib-perl so Text::Format becomes libtext-format-perl. On Ubuntu Linux and other Debian-derived Linux distros you therefore do something like this to get this package installed: $ sudo apt-get install libtext-format-perl If the above doesn't apply to you and your system has the cpan command installed, you can also do this: $ sudo cpan -i Text::Format The second solution above will probably work on modern releases of your favorite BSD Unix flavor; I just checked on OpenBSD and NetBSD systems I have access to and they both have this command. If you are not much for Unix system administration, the "sudo" command gives you temporary administrative powers for the purposes of a single command; your mileage may vary depending on your situation. Finally, if all else fails Text::Format is available from CPAN here: http://search.cpan.org/CPAN/authors/id/S/SH/SHLOMIF/Text-Format-0.53.tar.gz The usual recipe (after you've downloaded that file however) is: $ tar zxvf /path/to/Text-Format-0.53.tar.gz $ cd Text-Format-0.53 $ perl Makefile.PL $ make $ make test # assuming make test does not kick out any errors: $ sudo make install > -- > Darlan Hope this helps.
