Ah - you need the Perl Curses library. I don't think this comes
with the standard Perl install.
If you're on a debian-based system, the command "apt-get install
libcurses-perl" should get you sorted. Otherwise you'll need to
find the package that contains Perl's Curses library and install
that. Failing all that, you can download and install from CPAN[1].
You might get away with something like "perl -MCPAN -e 'install Curses'".
