Setting INTERACTIVE to true will stop the module from using 'die' for errors. Default is off.

Setting VERBOSE to true will generate messages when files are created. Default is off.

PERMISSIONS are used on all directories created. Default is that group and world can not write to the files.

USAGE_MESSAGE is printed after the error message if the module dies. Default shown above. Your scripts using ExtUtils::ModuleMaker should set this to what they return as a help message, often using the -h flag.
