pminst(1p)

find modules whose names match this pattern

NAME

pminst - find modules whose names match this pattern

SYNOPSIS

pminst [-s] [-l] [pattern]

DESCRIPTION

Without arguments, show the names of all installed modules. Given a pattern, show all module names that match it. The -l flag will show the full pathname. The -s flag will separate the base directory from @INC from the module portion itself.

EXAMPLES

    $ pminst
    (lists all installed modules)
    $ pminst Carp
    CGI::Carp
    Carp
    $ pminst ^IO::
    IO::Socket::INET
    IO::Socket::UNIX
    IO::Select
    IO::Socket
    IO::Poll
    IO::Handle
    IO::Pipe
    IO::Seekable
    IO::Dir
    IO::File
    $ pminst '(?i)io'
    IO::Socket::INET
    IO::Socket::UNIX
    IO::Select
    IO::Socket
    IO::Poll
    IO::Handle
    IO::Pipe
    IO::Seekable
    IO::Dir
    IO::File
    IO
    Pod::Functions
  The -s flag provides output with the directory separated
  by a space:
    $ pminst -s | sort +1
    (lists all modules, sorted by name, but with where they 
     came from)
    $ oldperl -S pminst -s IO
    /usr/lib/perl5/i386-linux/5.00404 IO::File
    /usr/lib/perl5/i386-linux/5.00404 IO::Handle
    /usr/lib/perl5/i386-linux/5.00404 IO::Pipe
    /usr/lib/perl5/i386-linux/5.00404 IO::Seekable
    /usr/lib/perl5/i386-linux/5.00404 IO::Select
    /usr/lib/perl5/i386-linux/5.00404 IO::Socket
    /usr/lib/perl5/i386-linux/5.00404 IO
    /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl LWP::IO
    /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl LWP::TkIO
    /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl Tk::HTML::IO
    /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl Tk::IO
    /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl IO::Stringy
    /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl IO::Wrap
    /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl IO::ScalarArray
    /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl IO::Scalar
    /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl IO::Lines
    /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl IO::WrapTie
    /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl IO::AtomicFile
  The -l flag gives full paths:
    $ filsperl -S pminst -l Thread
