Subject: all_from should recognize directories
Moin, a common mistake is to do: # Get most of the details from the primary module all_from 'lib/Math/BigInt'; e.g. omiting the .pm. In this case the code tries to extract the info from the directory lib/Math/BigInt, and thus fails. The error message could be more clear in this case (like "Cannot extract all from a directory"). Best wishes, Tels
Added a check to all_from for -f and a clear error message
