This is the README file for Text::Vpp, the Perl versatile pre-prosessor. This is Version 0.01. See the "Changes" file for details on the new features and fixes in this release. This mopule was written with perl5.003. It should work fine with perl5.001 or later (although I did not test it). You may find this module useful if you want to pre-preprocess text. Vpp understands if, else, elsif, endif, include and can substitute variables in the text. (See the test files in the distribution) See the embedded documentation in the module for more details. Comments and suggestions are always welcome. Note that this module is in alpha state. Its interface may change (but I hope not). Alpha exit criteria: - When some peoples (well, say 10 guys) tell me that they've used it and did not find major bug with the module or minor problems with the interface. - Dominique Dumont dominique_dumont@grenoble.hp.com --------------------------------------------------------------------- INSTALLATION zcat Text-Vpp-0.01.tar.gz | tar xvf - cd Text-Vpp-0.01 perl Makefile.PL make test # this will run 3 tests make install
