Use ^D or whatever to get rid of the terminal. So nobody can see it.
After that, no vestige will remain. stdout is not a file on disk or in memory. There is a file /dev/stdout but nothing "stays" in there. You do not need to take any more precautions, other than obviously safeguarding the actual file that holds the sensitive data.

DESCRIPTION
This is a "CPANPLUS::Shell::Default" plugin that can add custom sources to your CPANPLUS installation. This is a wrapper around the "custom
module sources" code as outlined in "CUSTOM MODULE SOURCES" in CPANPLUS::Backend.
This allows you to extend your index of available modules beyond what's available on "CPAN" with your own local distributions, or ones
offered by third parties.
