SYNOPSIS

    This distribution provides several command-line utilities related to
    Perl modules. The main purpose of these utilities is tab completion.

FAQ

 What is the purpose of this distribution? Haven't other utilities existed?

    For example, mpath in Module::Path distribution, mversion in
    Module::Version distribution, etc.

    True. The main point of these utilities is shell tab completion, to
    save typing.

 For shell completion, why do you recommend the use of / (slash) instead of
 :: (double colon) as it should be?

    Colon is problematic because by default it is a word breaking character
    in bash. This means, in this command:

     % pmpath Text:<tab>

    bash is completing a new word (empty string), and in this:

     % pmpath Text::ANSITabl<tab>

    bash is completing ANSITabl instead of what we want Text::ANSITabl.

    The solution is to use quotes, e.g.

     % pmpath "Text:<tab>
     % pmpath 'Text:<tab>

    or, use /, which is by default not a word-breaking character in bash.

    The utilities are a bit smart: they accept both kinds of separator. If
    you type module name which doesn't contain any ::, / will be used as
    namespace separator; otherwise if you already type ::, it will use ::
    as the separator.
