in reply to Perl module error

I do not get any error:
perl -c KeyManager.pm KeyManager.pm syntax OK

How are you using this? I even call it this way:

use Gate88::Bot::Core::KeyManager; my $x = Gate88::Bot::Core::KeyManager->new();

    Same like you:
    use Gate88::Bot::Core::KeyManager; $s->{'keyboard'} = Gate88::Bot::Core::KeyManager->new( $s->{'gs'}, $s- +>{'nm'} );
    ($s is another object) If I comment the use... line it says syntax Ok, so it must be in the module.
      Maybe there is some problematic whitespace in your .pm file:
      cat -A KeyManager.pm

      You should download the code from your post, just like I did, and paste it into a new file.

        I did what you said, downloaded it and replaced, and it worked! But then when I add my additional code to the file, I get error again: "KeyManager.pm" did not return a true value". So what is this whitespace problem? White spaces should be ignored by perl, and I don't have new line after 1; Is it about the newline character? I'm using Notepad++ on windows.
