To find out all modules installed on your system\, including those without documentation or outside the standard release\, just do this:

One should note that usebackq is a Windows 2000 specific enhancement to CMD.EXE. (Our older NT 4 systems didn't even have this in the documentation) Learned something new\, thanks!

Oh yeah. Much nicer. Thanks\, I somehow overlooked the /b option.

Now\, the question is should it go into perlmodlib? IMO it should.

Actually\, that raises an interesting point for me. Are there any decent statistics as to how many users/installations there are in the various OS arenas?

I say this because generally speaking the documentation has a very strong unix/sh bias. This isnt so bad\, but if there are a sufficient number of people using other OS's then surely beefing up the docs with examples relevant to them would be a good idea.

Id be really interested in knowing the number of users on

Mac *nix/sh W32/bash W32/cmd

Yup\, thats better too. :-)

Although I think it should be case insensitive\, and that it should return MS style paths.

perl -TlMFile::Find -e "find { no_chdir => 1\, wanted => sub { s!/!\\!g; /\.pm\z/i && print } }\, @INC"

Now I really think some non *nix/sh examples should go in perlmodlib...

In fact I would be in favor of the pure perl solution (and in all docs likewise\, except of course for platform-specific docs.) But a true cross-platform solution would be perhaps too verbose.

Then we should provide at least a few different ways for people to do it on different OS's.

Considering and assuming that the vast majority of users are on either win32 or *nix then a shell solution and a win32 solution should be provided. (Preferably pure perl to avoid 9x/NT/2k+ issues).

If there are other platforms that have sufficient usage then they should be represented as well.

One of the biggest complaints people have had with that is the output is so unix centric. However\, thanks to Ken Williams (who reminded me of File::Spec) and Jonathan Steinert (for win32 testing) I've got an almost portable shell solution.

% perl -MFile::Find=find -MFile::Spec::Functions -Tlwe \ 'find { wanted => sub { print canonpath $_ if /\.pm\z/ }\, no_chdir => 1 }\, @INC'

With the caveat that under win32 the quotes need to be doubled.

I'd be happy with this solution.
