In case you're *not* using Debian Linux like I do (Grrrrr) you can use the following command to check the list of installed modules and perldoc from there... perl -MExtUtils::Installed -le '$,="\n"; print ExtUtils::Installed->new()->modules()' Otherwise, surf the hierarchy at http://search.cpan.org It's organized in a Yahoo-Portal way and gives a nice overview about what's there. BTW: "The Best Ones" (tm) is not really a specific request. If you're in need of a decision for a specific topic, come back and ask which ones are prefered. -- If we fail, we will lose the war.
