TITLE

grep-modules - Find indexed modules that match one or more regexps.

SYNOPSIS

 grep-modules -help
 grep-modules -version

OPTIONS

-cpan

This option specifies the URL of the CPAN repository to access.

-help

This option displays the documentation for this script. The script then exits.

-verbose

This option causes the module's version and distribution to be displayed.

-version

DETAILS

This Perl script takes as its arguments one or more Perl regular expressions. Well, actually they are strings made into regular expressions with qr{ $_ }smx. The desired CPAN repository is accessed, and all indexed modules which match at least one of the regexes are displayed.

The URL of the desired CPAN repository can be specified using the -cpan option; otherwise it defaults to whatever CPAN::Access::AdHoc provides.
