I tried perldoc CPANPLUS and perldoc cpanplus and perl -MCPANPLUS -
e shell, but perl says it can't find any such thing.
I guess, if we want to use it we have to load it, that even though
the CPAN perldoc seems to strongly urge its use, it is not yet
distributed in the source of perl as CPAN is?
So I StheFriendlyW as I should have done first, and I find
http://www.perl.com/pub/a/2002/03/26/cpanplus.html
http://search.cpan.org/search?query=cpanplus
and
http://cpanplus.sourceforge.net/
which either auto-redirects or is aliased (don't want to take time to
figure out which) to
http://cpanplus.dwim.org/
where it says that cpan++ will become part of the core in perl 5.10
under a different, yet to be determined, name.
So, yeah, if I decide to use it, I guess I have to either download
and install it by hand or install it from CPAN :-o. (Have I asked
about this before and forgotten?)
I see there is a Bundle::CPANPLUS on CPAN. (Version 0.01? developer
level? or just so straightforward there isn't anything to fix?)
Sorry about the noise.
