NAME
$module - new PDL module to clutter up CPAN
SYNOPSIS
use $module;
# FILL THIS INDESCRIPTION
This will change the world.
NAME
pptemplate - script to generate Makefile.PL and PP file skeleton
SYNOPSIS
# generate Makefile.PL and mymodule.pd in PDL-MyModule
pptemplate PDL::MyModule;DESCRIPTION
The pptemplate script is the easiest way to start a new module for PDL that contains PP code (see also PDL::PP). The usage is simply
pptemplate modulename;As a result pptemplate will generate a perl Makefile for the new module (Makefile.PL) that contains the minimal structure to generate a module from PP code and also a skeleton file for your new module.
The file will be called mymod.pd if you called pptemplate as
pptemplate PDL::CleverAlgs::Mymod;I suppose you can work out the naming rule ;). If not resort to experimentation or the source code.
pptemplate will stop if the directory to be created already exists, to avoid accidents. Move it out of the way if you really want to scrap it.
As of 2.096, the "internal mode" of this script has been removed, and it creates the files using the new "deep mode". This is because the earlier practice of incorporating vast numbers of modules into the main PDL distribution has been rethought due to the problems it causes. Use this script to make it easy to create new CPAN-distributed PDL modules.
