NAME

       pmvers - print out a module's version

DESCRIPTION

       Given one or more module names, show the version number if present.  If more than one argument is given, the name of the module will also
       be printed.  Not all modules define version numbers, however.

EXAMPLES

	   $ pmvers CGI
	   2.46

	   $ pmvers IO::Socket Text::Parsewords
	   IO::Socket: 1.25
	   Text::ParseWords: 3.1

	   $ oldperl -S pmvers CGI
	   2.42

	   $ filsperl -S pmvers CGI
	   2.46

	   $ pmvers Devel::Loaded
	   pmvers: unknown version for module `Devel::Loaded'
