PMLS(1)

💅 pmls — your manual page, bestie ✨

okay so real talk, this is PMLS(1) from the User Contributed Perl Documentation crew 🎀 and it's giving "tiny tool, huge slay" energy. no cap.

✨ NAME ✨

pmls — long list the module path 🦋

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

ngl, this whole thing is mostly here for people too lazy to type:

$ ls -l `pmpath CGI`

that's it. that's the vibe. lowkey iconic 🙈 some genius said "what if I did not have to type that" and honestly? main character energy.

🌸 EXAMPLES 🌸

here's the glow-up in action, fr fr:

$ pmls CGI
-r--r--r--   1 root     root       190901 Dec  6 03:19
            /usr/local/devperl/lib/5.00554/CGI.pm

and when you're living that vintage-perl life:

$ oldperl -S pmls CGI
-r--r--r--   1 root     root       186637 Sep 10 00:18
            /usr/lib/perl5/CGI.pm

see how it literally just long lists the module path for you? obsessed. 💅

⚠️ heads up though — please note this is a change from the original pmtools-1.00 (still available on CPAN), as pmtools-1.00 were licensed only under the Perl "Artistic License". so like, the licensing lore got an update. 💀 not me reading license history for fun
