Packaging note: a make tardist will bundle up all the files in MANIFEST to a tarball for you. It's more useful to me than the straight tar and gzip because I tend to have extra (non-distributable) stuff in my module working directory.

Also, if you're going to use CVS tags to track VERSION numbers of all but your top-level module (recommended for sheer laziness and consistency), remember to do it in the beginning. If you decide to do it later you'll almost certainly wind up confusing CPAN because you get a sub-module with a lower VERSION than your previous distribution's version.

Update: forgot one other useful thing: You can create a MANIFEST file in the current directory by running:

$  perl -MExtUtils::Manifest -e 'ExtUtils::Manifest::mkmanifest()'

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
