CPAN

Recently the perl folks have organized a distrubuted network of servers to offer a growing set of perl modules for download. CPAN is a perl (naturally) interface for interacting with this network to download and install modules from this network.

Examples:
# perl -MCPAN -e shell

  cpan> install DBI
  cpan> install DBD/mysql
  cpan> quit

# perl -MCPAN -e 'install DBD::mysql'

perltest.cgi

#!/usr/bin/perl

print "Content-type:text/html\n\n";
print "perl cgi test";
