Inside Description

Find out what's inside your Perl installation Inside is a Perl script that will try to report which Perl modules are available on your machine, along with some other useful information. Although it's especially made to be helpful to CGI programmers, it may be of use to other Perl users as well.Note that I've done more than a few weird things in this code in order to make it work in some odd surroundings. The right thing to do in general is to fix the broken environments, rather than to work around them. But since the purpose of this program is to diagnose some of those broken environments, I'm breaking the rules. In short: Don't Do As This Code Does! Use the accepted techniques, instead.You should be able to run this program on nearly any machine which has Perl, either as a CGI program or stand-alone, although not under Apache/mod_perl's non-CGI environments, like Apache::Registry or Apache::PerlRun. (The ordinary Apache CGI environment is fine, whether mod_perl is installed or not.) The only(?) thing which should need changing in the program text is the location of perl in the #!-line, the first line of the program. There's also a small Configuration section near the top of the source, if you really need to have something to fiddle with.Developer commentsOf course, if you're installing this program on a webserver, your local expert may need to help you to get it running. Don't ask me to do it! Requirements: · Perl
