pmq version 0.1.2 Report the installed version of a Perl module, or list all modules with their versions. Examples: % pmq Date::Manip % pmq --all This is intended as an answer to the two FAQs, 'how do I find out what version of a module is installed?' and 'how do I list all modules installed on a system?'. It's quite handy for upgrading a whole perl installation from one release to another, since you can take before and after snapshots and check nothing has broken or been downgraded. * Changes since the last release Corrected some misleading documentation. All of pmq's methods for finding a module's version number involve executing some code from that module. * Installation As for Perl modules. % perl Makefile.PL PREFIX=/usr/local (or change /usr/local to your chosen location) % make (there is no 'make test' for this program) % make install * Copying This program is in the public domain, which means there are no copyright restrictions and you can do what you want with it.
