Unpack (requires gzip and tar on Unix or
WinZip under Windows)
Edit the Makefile.PL and follow the brief instructions contained in
it.
Type "perl Makefile.PL"
Type "make"
Type "make install" (may require special permission). This will
install the perl extension into the perl lib directory.
Try one of the example scripts.
Notes
HPUX users may need to compile the extension statically into the Perl binary.
Windows users can use the binary distribution along with ActiveState Perl.
