As suggested by tye in response to my query on monk polls here, I am proposing the following poll:
When it comes to installing modules on CPAN...
- I use the CPAN.pm installer shell.
- I use CPANPLUS.
- I don't use CPAN, but use Activestate ppm instead.
- I download the tarball, build and install it with make.
- I copy all the .pm files into the right directories to install.
- I do not need to use external modules. All my code is self contained.
- My employer/ISP is reluctant to install modules I request, and I am not allowed to install them myself.
-
Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

Want more info? How to link
or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
