[Cedarvalley] Checking for a module before loading.

[Aaron Thompson]

Hello,

  I was wondering if anyone knew of a good way to check for a
  perl module before loading it.

  Something like:
    use Net::SMTP if (is_module(Net::SMTP));

  I would like to write some code that will check if modules are
  present and then load them.

  Thanks.
