Try this... h2xs -X -n Time::Elapsed This will create a sample Makefile.PL, test.t, MANIFEST, etc. just like the modules in CPAN. Plug your code into the Elapsed.pm that they provice, complete the POD, and create some test cases in test.t and then when you're ready to go, try: perl Makefile.PL make make test If that works, you can then do: make tardist to create the Time-Elapsed-0-01.tar.gz file, ready to upload. That seems.. almost too easy. :-) Thanks, I'll try that.

Was beginning to think no one reads this list anymore :) just a bit of silliness I conconcted while reading Damian's OOP... Your thoughtful appraisal and suggestions would be most welcome. I'm still experimenting with it off and on. :-) This module could be useful. I don't see any reason to not upload it. Except that the name would be better as Time::Elapsed (which would fit with the other Time::* modules). Hello Scott, It seems to me this module covers the same problem space as the Benchmark module, as it's used like this: use Benchmark; $t0 = new Benchmark; # ... your code here ... $t1 = new Benchmark; $td = timediff($t1, $t0); print the code took:,timestr($td),\n; If I recall, your module took a slightly different approach by reporting the time it takes for a variable to change. -mark . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
