There are the modules which are included in the standard distribution,
so you should have no problem using them

include the various Modules when it encounters a "use" or the likes?


The main problem is that modules that are not in the standard
distribution may need building against the target architecture.( a lot
of modules are architecture independent, but you don't find that out
till you build them)


The simple solution is to take the code in the module and adapt it to
your script.
