Oh, that's strange. It's installed by the perl package on my system, so I had assumed it was a standard part of a Perl install. > It does exist on my Mac, but the output is very unhelpful: Wow, it looks like it's completely broken in macOS. > So this isn't looking promising :-( Looking in the archives, apparently people use perl -MModule::CoreList but I see that that module, at least in Debian, is distributed even less widely than corelist(1) itself, because it's a separate package -- even though it seems to be part of Perl's core. Also, the module's interface appears less helpful than `corelist -a`. Let's leave it at that, then. Your original is a step forward in any case. -- Álvaro Herrera PostgreSQL Developer — https://www.EnterpriseDB.com/
