In the thread CPAN Testers command-line viewer, it was suggested I release the script on CPAN. Well, now it's on CPAN, but not as a standalone script - it's part of p5u.

p5u is a command-line script which acts as a single point of entry for several different Perl and CPAN related utilities. The cool thing about p5u is that it's pluggable, so you can write your own P5U commands for local use, or publish them on CPAN. (A template command module is provided.)

Here's some examples of what can be done with p5u...

Hmmm... what version of the HTML::HTML5::Entities module is installed?

 $ p5u version HTML::HTML5::Entities
 HTML::HTML5::Entities
     /opt/perl-5.16.0/lib/site_perl/5.16.0/HTML/HTML5/Entities.pm: 0.0
+03

How is that version doing on CPAN Testers?

 $ p5u testers HTML::HTML5::Entities

Let's run the HTML-HTML5-Entities test suite against my currently installed copy of the module

 $ p5u reprove HTML::HTML5::Entities
