in thread Option for MetaCPAN in cpan links

Oh, indeed — I hadn’t bumped into those codes. But even so, there’s already an option in Display Settings where one can (sort of) change the behaviour of the [cpan://...] command, only for one’s own viewing pleasure. So I wonder if it’s possible to make them all behave like [meta{mod,cpan}://...] commands, or feasible at all. Besides hacking around with LanX’s script that is :)

Might be just me, but I really dislike the old CPAN now that there’s a nicer one — and I bet there are some oldskool people out there who would get uneasy about people linking to MetaCPAN. So that’s why I’m thinking it might serve a good purpose as a display setting.

    Well... my hack is already productive! =)

    I'm afraid that not many alternatives for such personal wishes will be offered.
