Does search.cpan.org understand "-TRIAL" now? Last I looked, it was properly handled (i.e. not indexed) by PAUSE, but would leak through in a few other places where it appears that an assumption was being made without checking the index. It also looked like '-TRIAL' was intended to be used as a pre-release without bumping any version numbers, so you could have -TRIAL1, -TRIAL2, etc all with the version e.g. 5.6.2. Am I understanding that right? --Eric -- "It works better if you plug it in!" --Sattinger's Law --------------------------------------------------- http://scratchcomputing.com ---------------------------------------------------
