May I just add an AOL here? It would be very nice if all modules did the right thing in any batch environment. I run into this problem with cpancover. Generating coverage data for a bunch of modules is trivial compared to the problem of actually installing the things. > I haven't had time to look at this issue, but after having been smoking > CPAN uploads for a while, I'm astonished at the number of modules that > sit hanging on STDIN waiting for input. Yes. And is it one of the Readline modules that sits there on make test waiting for me to type "exit", meaning that it takes two nights to generate coverage data rather than one? -- Paul Johnson - paul@pjcj.net http://www.pjcj.netThread Previous | Thread Next
