File-Locate-Harder version 0.06 =============================== File::Locate::Harder provides a generalized "locate" method to access the file system indexes used by the "locate" command-line utility. It is intended to be a relatively portable way for perl code to quickly ascertain what files are present on the current system. This code is essentially a wrapper around multiple different methods of accessing a locate database: it makes an effort to use the fastest method that works. INSTALLATION To install this module type the following: perl Makefile.PL make make test make install DEPENDENCIES This module requires these other modules and libraries: Class::Base Test::Trap (used by tests) File::Locate will be used if it's available, but does not depend on it. If File::Locate is not working, it falls back on command-line locate (standard on many systems, sometimes found in a package such as "findutils").
