Right, but the thing I don't get is why is there so many? For instance, I can see the reasoning behind having one default one and then maybe a second one for the user account. But like bash for instance has .bashrc, .bash_profile, .bash_login, etc. And I know that it's not necessary to use all of them but it just seems like it overly complicates things to have so many available. Then not to mention, that's just for UNIX,... Linux distributions have even more. Maybe I'm still too new to this, but it seems like it would make more sense to standardize this system to all shells and all platforms.

CPANPLUS::Shell(3pm)					 Perl Programmers Reference Guide				      CPANPLUS::Shell(3pm)

NAME
CPANPLUS::Shell - base class for CPANPLUS shells SYNOPSIS
use CPANPLUS::Shell; # load the shell indicated by your # config -- defaults to # CPANPLUS::Shell::Default use CPANPLUS::Shell qw[Classic] # load CPANPLUS::Shell::Classic; my $ui = CPANPLUS::Shell->new(); my $name = $ui->which; # Find out what shell you loaded $ui->shell; # run the ui shell DESCRIPTION
This module is the generic loading (and base class) for all "CPANPLUS" shells. Through this module you can load any installed "CPANPLUS" shell. Just about all the functionality is provided by the shell that you have loaded, and not by this class (which merely functions as a generic loading class), so please consult the documentation of your shell of choice.
