Test::Pod errors you can ignore. they don't affect the code. you can send them to me so i can fix them though. which version of Pod::Checker do you have? > That starts cascading into errors in Text::Prereq: the tests are separate, so failures in one should not be connected to failures in the next one. > BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at > /Users/morbus/.cpan/build/Test-Prereq-0.18/t/pod.t line 8. > Can't locate object method "ARRAY" via package "B::begin_av" at > /Library/Perl/B/Module/Info.pm line 49. > There's probably another fifty cascading errors past that. that's an error in Module::Info. it looks like the test will fail, but if you check the report at the end of the tests, you should see that the prereq test didn't fail. the output you see if just Module::Info dumping a lot of information. > >the XML format doesn't gve you everything that iTunes knows about the > >mp3 files. you'll have to look in the "iTunes Music Library" for some of it. > > Oh? Any ideas off the top what's missing? i don't have a list, but Mac::iTunes::FileFormat is everything i know about the binary format. > Heh, funny - I'm a huUUge fan of Text::Template, but decided not to > use it because I wanted the script as standalonish as possible. standalone means less power. :)
