Re: Net::Interface or IO::Interface and aliases

Your observation is accurate. Doing a grep -rl alias . in the respective package directory shows Makefile (compiler flags) and an object file for each package (s_aliases from struct servent in /usr/include/netdb.h) on my linux box.

Seems like alias handling is missing. You could contact the authors (preferably with an appropriate patch .-)

--shmem

_($_=" "x(1<<5)."?\n".q·/)Oo.  G°\        /
                              /\_¯/(q    /
----------------------------  \__(m.====·.(_("always off the crowd"))."·
");sub _{s./.($e="'Itrs `mnsgdq Gdbj O`qkdq")=~y/"-y/#-z/;$e.e && print}

Well, this is one of my first programs in perl... I don't think I have the level to patch a CPAN module. Hope someone finds this interresting, for now, I'll simply pipe ifconfig :) Thank you.	[reply]
