At the moment it uses CPAN.pm to do the work, but it is not a one-shot command runner for CPAN.pm. =head2 Options =over 4 =item -a Creates a CPAN.pm autobundle with CPAN::Shell->autobundle. =item -A module [ module ... ] Shows the primary maintainers for the specified modules. =item -c module Runs a `make clean` in the specified module's directories. =item -C module [ module ... ] Show the F files for the specified modules =item -D module [ module ... ] Show the module details. This prints one line for each out-of-date module (meaning, modules locally installed but have newer versions on CPAN). Each line has three columns: module name, local version, and CPAN version. =item -f Force the specified action, when it normally would have failed. Use this to install a module even if its tests fail. When you use this option, -i is not optional for installing a module when you need to force it: % cpan -f -i Module::Foo =item -F Turn off CPAN.pm's attempts to lock anything. You should be careful with this since you might end up with multiple scripts trying to muck in the same directory. This isn't so much of a concern if you're loading a special config with C<-j>, and that config sets up its own work directories. =item -g module [ module ... ] Downloads to the current directory the latest distribution of the module. =item -G module [ module ... ] UNIMPLEMENTED Download to the current directory the latest distribution of the modules, unpack each distribution, and create a git repository for each distribution. If you want this feature, check out Yanick Champoux's C distribution. =item -h Print a help message and exit. When you specify C<-h>, it ignores all of the other options and arguments. =item -i module [ module ... ] Install the specified modules. With no other switches, this switch is implied. =item -I Load C (think like C<-I> for loading lib paths). Too bad C<-l> was already taken. =item -j Config.pm Load the file that has the CPAN configuration data. This should have the same format as the standard F file, which defines C<$CPAN::Config> as an anonymous hash. =item -J Dump the configuration in the same format that CPAN.pm uses. This is useful for checking the configuration as well as using the dump as a starting point for a new, custom configuration. =item -l List all installed modules with their versions =item -L author [ author ... ] List the modules by the specified authors. =item -m Make the specified modules. =item -M mirror1,mirror2,... A comma-separated list of mirrors to use for just this run. The C<-P> option can find them for you automatically. =item -n Do a dry run, but don't actually install anything. (unimplemented) =item -O Show the out-of-date modules. =item -p Ping the configured mirrors and print a report =item -P Find the best mirrors you coul
