man bash it's in "shell builtin commands" -- search for " set [" (that's space, set, space, beginbracket) -- I use Debian/GNU Linux version 3.0; Linux boss 2.4.18-bf2.4 #1 Son Apr 14 09:53:28 CEST 2002 i586 unknown DEBIAN NEWBIE TIP #90 from Der.Hans <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> and Joey Hess <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> : Wondering HOW TO GET CPAN MODULES FOR PERL? man CPAN Not too many manpages need capital letters. (It's a Perl module that comes with Perl, or at least has since Potato or before.) Then, perl -MCPAN -e 'shell' CAVEAT: if the Perl module is not packaged in *.deb Debian format (and about 270 are), the next best thing is to use the dh-make-perl, which can build debian packages on the fly out of CPAN.
