Heard about it here too. Haven't bothered to look through the source. I've got a feeling it's an unofficial, unsupported, but works well 99% of the time utility. I'm sure that it will mature and get better, or be integrated into portage or something eventually. As far as -MCPAN I'd guess it is nothing more than a portage/sandbox interface to just that :) Alan -- Alan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> - http://arcterex.net --------------------------------------------------------------------- "The only thing that experience teaches us is that experience teaches us nothing. -- Andre Maurois (Emile Herzog) -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
