.IP "\-d" 4
.IX Item "-d"
finds the first perl version where a module has been released by
date, and not by version number (as is the default).
.IP "\-\-diff" 4
.IX Item "--diff"
Given two versions of perl, this prints a human-readable table of all module
changes between the two. The output format may change in the future, and is
meant for \fIhumans\fR, not programs. For programs, use the Module::CoreList
\&\s-1API.\s0
.IP "\-? or \-help" 4
.IX Item "-? or -help"
help! help! help! to see more help, try \-\-man.
.IP "\-man" 4
.IX Item "-man"
all of the help
.IP "\-v" 4
.IX Item "-v"
lists all of the perl release versions we got the CoreList for.
.Sp
If you pass a version argument (value of \f(CW$]\fR, like \f(CW5.00503\fR or \f(CW5.008008\fR),
you get a list of all the modules and their respective versions.
(If you have the \f(CW\*(C`version\*(C'\fR module, you can also use new-style version numbers,
like \f(CW5.8.8\fR.)
.Sp
In module filtering context, it can be used as Perl version filter.
.IP "\-r" 4
.IX Item "-r"
lists all of the perl releases and when they were released
.Sp
If you pass a perl version you get the release date for that version only.
.IP "\-\-utils" 4
.IX Item "--utils"
lists the first version of perl each named utility program was released with
.Sp
May be used with \-d to modify the first release criteria.
.Sp
If used with \-v <version> then all utilities released with that version of perl
are listed, and any utility programs named on the command line are ignored.
.IP "\-\-feature, \-f" 4
.IX Item "--feature, -f"
lists the first version bundle of each named feature given
.IP "\-\-upstream, \-u" 4
.IX Item "--upstream, -u"
Shows if the given module is primarily maintained in perl core or on \s-1CPAN\s0
and bug tracker \s-1URL.\s0
.PP
As a special case, if you specify the module name \f(CW\*(C`Unicode\*(C'\fR, you'll get
the version number of the Unicode Character Database bundled with the
requested perl versions.
