in thread Cygwin vs. Active State Perl Install

Please forgive my ignorance, but I have (at least) one question about compilers...how do I know if any of our modules actually need a C compiler? And is "modules" the correct term? We have about 3 dozen batch scripts, and I know that there are some "default" modules which come with various Perl downloads, but I haven't yet grasped the concept of Perl modules yet (I'm OBVIOUSLY new to Perl, and I'm trying to learn it at the same time I'm converting our batch scripts).
