This month's topic...

Tools for Coding in the Dark (i.e. without internet access) -
Brief Coverage of CPAN::Mini and a mention of Pod::Webserver

Presented by Brad Oaks

Sometimes you can take it with you. In this presentation we
will cover two tools to add to your laptop before your next
road trip, or before a storm knocks out your modem.

CPAN::Mini creates or updates a local mirror of CPAN. This is
especially useful for those of us coding on laptops where we
occasionally do not have internet access.

Pod::Webserver provides a web interface to the pod documentation
resident on a particular machine. You'll have an index of all
the modules installed on your system, and the docs will be for
the same *version* of the package you have installed.
