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

NAME

       CPANPLUS::Shell

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;

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.
