DESCRIPTION

14       This program runs through all your installed modules and tells you what
15       they're for and what version number they are at.
16
17       The following options are honored:
18
19       -v  give debug info
20
21       -w  warn about missing descriptions on modules
22
23       -a  include relative paths
24
25       -s  sort output within each directory
26

HISTORICAL NOTE

28       This program used to be called pmdesc and is included in The Perl Cook‐
29       book under that name.  However, that name has been usurped by a simpler
30       program.
31
32       For example, to find the versions of what is in your site-specific
33       directory, the simpler pmdesc might be preferred:
34
35           $ pmdesc `pminst -s ⎪ perl -lane 'print $F[1] if $F[0] =~ /site/'`
36           XML::Parser::Expat (2.19) - Lowlevel access to James Clark's expat XML parser
37           XML::Parser (2.19) - A perl module for parsing XML documents
38

KNOWN BUGS

40       This program takes a long time to run.
41
42       Some modules don't work right (CPAN.pm, ExtUtils) because of noisy
43       things they do at compile time or poor formatting of the pod.
