CPANPLUS::Shell::Default::Plugins::Changes 💖

okay bestie, so this is CPANPLUS::Shell::Default::Plugins::Changes — a lil plugin for the CPANPLUS shell that lets you peek at a module's Changes file without ever leaving the comfort of your terminal. yes, from inside the shell. we love convenience. 🫶

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

### View Changes file of CPANPLUS
CPAN Terminal> /changes CPANPLUS

like… that's it. that's the whole vibe. one slash command and boom, you're reading changelogs like the main character you are. 👑

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so here's the tea: this plugin lets you display the Changes file of a module — and it's not picky about the name either, so it'll also happily grab a Changelog, a ChangeLog, etc. — so you can get an overview of what (according to the maintainer) has changed. 💅

it's giving "I just want to know what broke before I upgrade" energy and honestly? relatable. ngl, checking the Changes before you install is lowkey self-care. 🌸

it's according to the maintainer, bestie — so that's their version of events, not a legally binding contract. 🙈
