# CPAN::Nox(3pm)

Wrapper around CPAN.pm without using any XS module

## NAME

CPAN::Nox - Wrapper around CPAN.pm without using any XS module

## SYNOPSIS

Interactive mode:

```
  perl -MCPAN::Nox -e shell;
```

## DESCRIPTION

This package has the same functionality as CPAN.pm, but tries to prevent the usage of compiled extensions during it's own execution. It's primary purpose is a rescue in case you upgraded perl and broke binary compatibility somehow.
