Be sure to check out all of the responses from the Installed Module thread (there were several methods listed) from a couple days ago. | [reply] |
use HTML::Perlinfo;
perlinfo(INFO_MODULES);
That will show you all the modules on your system, their version number, their location, and whether or not they are core modules. It will also provide you with a link to the module documentation on CPAN. | [reply]

This module is a joke, right?

Looks like a joke to me. | [reply] |
Well, you could filter the files in the subdirectories in @INC with the extension .pm...
use File::Find;
foreach my $dir (@INC) {
find( sub {
if (-f $_ and /\.pm/) {
my $module = $File::Find::name;
$module =~ s|\Q$dir\E/||; # remove part of @INC
$module =~ s|\.pm$||; # remove extension .pm
$module =~ s|/|::|g; # translate / to ::
print "$module\n";
} # if
}, $dir);
} # foreach

In similar vein, I've found this little program surprisingly useful:
[~]$ cat `which pmwhich`
#!/usr/bin/perl
use warnings;
use strict;
die "pmwhich module-name\n" unless @ARGV == 1;
my $module = $ARGV[0];
$module =~ s!::!/!g;
for my $dir (@INC) {
my $fqn = "$dir/$module.pm";
if (-e $fqn) {
print $fqn, "\n";
last;
}
}
[~]$ pmwhich bigint
/usr/lib/perl5/5.8.5/bigint.pm
[~]$
It's a quick way to find out whether a particular module is installed -- and it helps me learn the tricks other module-writers have used. Shoulders of giants, y'know?

The language is called Perl, the interpreter is perl. Both are not PERL. Perl is not an acronym. See perlfaq1. | [reply] |
