Recall previous searches using the 'search <number>' command. PPM stores
searches for each session until you exit PPM.
Some package names or versions are too long to be displayed in the
search results. If a name is too long, you will see a '~' (tilde) as the
last visible character in the column. You can use *describe* to view
detailed information about such packages.
Search Results
When you type a command like ""search XML"", PPM searches in each of the
Active Repositories (see the *repository* command) for your package. The
results are merged into one list, and duplicates (packages found in more
than one repository) are hidden.
You can control what fields PPM shows for each package. The fields each
have a built-in weight, which is used to calculate how wide to make each
field based on the width of your screen. Information that doesn't fit
into a field is truncated, and a tilde (""~"") character is displayed in
the last column of the field.
Let's get down to an example:
ppm> search XML
Searching in Active Repositories
1. CGI-XMLForm [0.10] Extension to CGI.pm which
2. Data-DumpXML [1.01] Dump arbitrary data structures
3. DBIx-XML_RDB [0.05] Perl extension for creating XML
4. DBIx-XMLMessage [0.03] XML Message exchange between DBI
5. GoXML-XQI [1.1.4] Perl extension for the XML Query
6. Language-DATR-DATR2~ [0.901] manipulate DATR .dtr, XML, HTML,
7. libxml-perl [0.07] support for deeply nested
8. Mail-FilterXML [0.1] Undetermined
9. Mail-XML [0.03] Adds a toXML() method to
10. Pod-XML [0.93] Module to convert POD to XML
As you can see, the three fields being displayed are:
1 NAME
The package name
2 VERSION
The package version
3 ABSTRACT
The package abstract
You can customize the view somewhat. If you want to view the authors,
but not the abstract, you can run the same *search* command after using
*set* to change the fields:
ppm> set fields=""NAME VERSION AUTHOR""
Setting 'fields' set to 'name version author'.
ppm> search XML
