NAME

Alien::Thrust - Download and install the Thrust cross-platform GUI framework

DESCRIPTION

This package will download a zip file containing the Thrust cross-platform, cross-language GUI toolkit and will then install it into its private distribution share directory.

The location of the binary is stored in the $Alien::Thrust::thrust_shell_binary variable:

    $ perl -MAlien::Thrust -E 'say $Alien::Thrust::thrust_shell_binary'
    /usr/local/share/perl/5.18.2/auto/share/dist/Alien-Thrust/thrust_shell

Note however that you probably want to use the Thrust module instead of accessing the binary directly.
