Thanks!

(Looking closer, I think I had a typo in one test script that may have 
lead me astray -- GEtOpt::Std.)

#!/usr/local/bin/perl
use Tk;
use GEtopt::Std;
print ("Hello ACI\n");
print ("\n");
foreach $i (@INC){
        print ("$i\n");
}

Of course the main module still does not work, so I need dig some more.
