Getopt-Easy version 0.1
========================
Getopt::Easy is a clear and simple alternative to Getopt::Std
and Getopt::Long. It also provides a usage message, an option
for POD output, and a flexible debugging option.
INSTALLATION
To install this module on Unix and its variants,
take the Getopt-Easy-0.1.tar.gz file and do
the usual:
% gunzip Getopt-Easy-0.1.tar.gz
% tar xvf Getopt-Easy-0.1.tar
% cd Getopt-Easy-0.1
% perl Makefile.PL
% make
% make test
And assuming all went well,
become super user to do the following:
# make install
Since this is a pure Perl module you COULD install it manually.
Unzip the tar.gz file somehow and then make a Getopt subdirectory
somewhere on the default search paths (see perl -V and look
at the bottom for the @INC array). Then copy
lib/Getopt/Easy.pm there.
For example, on Win32:
Use Winzip to extract the files from the tar.gz file.
lib/Getopt/Easy.pm will be among them.
C:> perl -V
...
D:\Perl\lib
D:\Perl\site\lib
# make the Getopt directory:
C:>md D:\Perl\site\lib\Getopt
Copy lib/Getopt/Easy.pm to D:\Perl\site\lib\Getopt
That's all that is needed.
Then you can do:
C:> perldoc Getopt::Easy
And use the module however you wish.
