   <h3>Installing CPAN modules</h3>
   
   <p> Lon-CAPA uses a large numbe of perl modules that need to be
   installed. Some of these may be available on your machine already,
   some can be gotten from packages in your Linux Distribution. Some will probably need to come from CPAN </p>
   
   <p> You can check which modules you have and which ones you need by
   running the TEST script. It will generate a CPAN_STATUS_REPORT.
   You can install an missing perl modules by doing:
   <table bgcolor="#aaaaaa" border="1">
   <tr><td><tt>perl -MCPAN -e 'install MODULENAME'</tt></td></tr>
   </table>
   Where MODULENAME is the perl module you need to install.
   </p>
   <p>
   More documentation on how CPAN works is available <a href="http://www.perl.com/CPAN/misc/cpan-faq.html#How_install_Perl_modules">here</a>
