🌸 PMPATH(1) — the pmpath era 💅

ok so bestie, quick vibe check: this is pmpath, section 1 of the User Contributed Perl Documentation, and it's genuinely one of those tiny little tools that just... does the thing. no notes. no cap. ✨

🎀 NAME 🎀

pmpath — literally just shows you the full path to a perl module. that's it. that's the whole personality. 🫶

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

pmpath module ...

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

okay so for each module name you hand it as an argument, pmpath produces that module's full path on the standard output — one per line. icon behaviour honestly. give it a list, get a list back. slay. 🔥

⭐ EXAMPLES ⭐

like, look at her go:

$ pmpath CGI
/usr/local/devperl/lib/5.00554/CGI.pm

and she plays nice with other perls too, no drama:

$ filsperl -S pmpath IO::Socket CGI::Carp
/usr/local/filsperl/lib/5.00554/i686-linux-thread/IO/Socket.pm
/usr/local/filsperl/lib/5.00554/CGI/Carp.pm

and the vintage queen herself, oldperl:

$ oldperl -S pmpath CGI CGI::Imagemap
/usr/lib/perl5/CGI.pm
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/CGI/Imagemap.pm

see? one path per module, every single time. main character energy, zero fluff. 💅
