Subject: Mistakes in documentation
There are a few minor mistakes in the documentation. 1. The URL of the official Developer Guide docs PDF has moved: if you follow the current link, at the end of the section "All other methods", what you get is a PDF file with just a link to the new URL: https://cms.PayPal.com/cms_content/en_US/files/developer/PP_NVP_API_DeveloperGuide.pdf 2. The text under the header "TESTING" describes how you have to create a text file with user name, password and signature for a sandbox account, to run the tests. However, the POD doesn't mention the name that this file should be called (it is "auth.txt"). Thankfully, the README file contains an almost identical text, nad it does mention the expected filename. p.s. The official developer docs from PayPal (see above link) mention a sandbox user/password/signature triplet on page 14, that can be used for basic testing. Perhaps you could provide a default "auth.txt" file with these values?
