It describes +basic usage and background information. Its main purpose is to +assist the user who wants to learn how to invoke CPANPLUS +and install modules from the commandline and to point you +to more indepth reading if required. + +=head2 API REFERENCE + +The C<CPANPLUS> API is meant to let you programmatically +interact with the C<CPAN> mirrors. The documentation in +L<CPANPLUS::Backend> shows you how to create an object +capable of interacting with those mirrors, letting you +create & retrieve module objects. +L<CPANPLUS::Module> shows you how you can use these module +objects to perform actions like installing and testing. + +The default shell, documented in L<CPANPLUS::Shell::Default> +is also scriptable. You can use its API to dispatch calls +from your script to the CPANPLUS Shell. + +=cut + +=head1 COMMANDLINE TOOLS + +=head2 STARTING AN INTERACTIVE SHELL + +You can start an interactive shell by running either of +the two following commands: + + $ cpanp + + $ perl -MCPANPLUS -eshell + +All commans available are listed in the interactive shells +help menu. See C<cpanp -h> or L<CPANPLUS::Shell::Default> +for instructions on using the default shell. + +=head2 CHOOSE A SHELL + +By running C<cpanp> without arguments, you will start up +the shell specified in your config, which defaults to +L<CPANPLUS::Shell::Default>. There are more shells available. +C<CPANPLUS> itself ships with an emulation shell called +L<CPANPLUS::Shell::Classic> that looks and feels just like +the old C<CPAN.pm> shell. + +You can start this shell by typing: + + $ perl -MCPANPLUS -e'shell Classic' + +Even more shells may be available from C<CPAN>. + +Note that if you have changed your default shell in your +configuration, that shell will be used instead. If for +some reason there was an error with your specified shell, +you will be given the default shell. + +=head2 BUILDING PACKAGES + +C<cpan2dist> is a commandline tool to convert any distribution +from C<CPAN> into a package in the format of your choice, like +for example C<.deb> or C<FreeBSD ports>. + +See C<cpan2dist -h> for details. + + +=head1 FUNCTIONS + +For quick access to common commands, you may use this module, +C<CPANPLUS> rather than the full programmatic API situated in +C<CPANPLUS::Backend>. This module offers the following functions: + +=head2 $bool = install( Module::Name | /A/AU/AUTHOR/Module-Name-1.tgz ) + +This function requires the full name of the module, which is case +sensitive. The module name can also be provided as a fully +qualified file name, beginning with a I</>, relative to +the /authors/id directory on a CPAN mirror. + +It will download, extract and install the module. + +=head2 $where = fetch( Module::Name | /A/AU/AUTHOR/Module-Name-1.tgz ) + +Like install, fetch needs the full name of a module or the fully +qualified file name, and is case sensitive. + +It will download the specified module to the current directory. + +=head2 $where = get( Module::Name | /A/AU/AUTHOR/Module-Name-1.tgz ) + +Get is provided as an alias for fetch for compatibility with +CPAN.pm. + +=head2 shell() + +Shell starts the default CPAN shell. You can also start the shell +by using the C<cpanp> command, which will be installed in your +perl bin. + +=head1 FAQ + +For frequently asked questions and answers, please consult the +C<CPANPLUS::FAQ> manual. + +=head1 BUG REPORTS + +Please report bugs or other issues to E<lt>bug-cpanplus@rt.cpan.org<gt>. + +=head1 AUTHOR + +This module by Jos Boumans E<lt>kane@cpan.orgE<gt>. + +=head1 COPYRIGHT + +The CPAN++ interface (of which this module is a part of) is copyright (c) +2001 - 2007, Jos Boumans E<lt>kane@cpan.orgE<gt>.
