(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)
CPAN is also the name of a perl module that makes it easy to download, install, update, and maintain other perl modules which are archived on CPAN. It supports numerous download protocols, supports the use of firewall proxies, and does module dependency checking, and can meet any dependency requirements by automatically downloading and installing any additional modules if the user so chooses.
The name is styled after CTAN, the Comprehensive TeX Archive Network.
