If you install PAR::Dist::FromCPAN 0.03 which is on its way to CPAN and
the new PAR::Dist 0.12 (which implements most changes), you'll find a
couple of new command line switches:
--merge (merges all deps into one .par)
--no-docs (strips docs)
--skip REGEX (skips all modules matching REGEX)
Of course, you can also use PAR::Dist 0.12 directly to do this:
perl -MPAR::Dist -e 'merge_par("my_dist1.par", "my_dist2.par", ...);
remove_man("my_dist1.par")'
Thanks for the good idea. If you find the module useful, let me know how
it helped you if you like. (If not, I'd like to hear why, too, of course.)
