in reply to Module to talk to modem?

Okay, I'm curious so I searched for "modem" in CPAN and found Device::Modem . I did just post so today I guess I learned to search before I post a reply.

    Thanks, I didn't bother to search CPAN, because I didn't realise they would use a name that makes sense. I figured it would be group with something silly sounding like 'POE' or 'LWP'

      And yet you asked people here to do the job for you?

        I was not asking them to search for me. As the context you so nicely removed from my post tells you, I was suspecting that the module I would want would be under some silly, and somewhat daft codename. Such as I found 'POE' to be when I was trying to find some IRC modules , and LWP, when I was trying to find some HTTP modules. Keeping in mind that a search for IRC returns something with a sane name today. It was quite some time ago I needed to be pointed at POE.
