Thanks Michael.

I make a patch according to your mail.

Best regards,
Hui

1. Fix a little format issue.
2. Check the return of "Getopt::Long::GetOptions".  Output usage and exit if it get error.
3. Change $ARGV[$#ARGV] to $ARGV[0].
4. Change the code which get $modulefile from modinfo.  Replace the pipeline with `modinfo -F filename $module`.
4. Change usage from "Specify the module directory name" to "Specify the module filename".
