V version 0.18

This module uses stolen code from Module::Info to find the location and version of the specified module(s). It prints them and exit()s.

It works by definening import() and is based on an idea from Michael Schwern on the perl5-porters list. See the discussion

$ perl -MV=CPAN
CPAN
        /opt/homebrew/opt/perl/lib/perl5/5.38/CPAN.pm: 2.36

or if you want more than one package

$ perl -MV=CPAN,V

As of version 0.17 it will show all packages and classes in a file with a version. (If one wants all packages/classes in the files, set the environment variable PERL_V_SHOW_ALL)

$ perl -MV=SOAP::Lite
SOAP::Lite
        /opt/homebrew/opt/perl/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.38/SOAP/Lite.pm:
            SOAP::Lite: 1.27
            SOAP::Client: 1.27
