Primary LanguagePerl

NAME

Alien-Font-Vera - access to Vera truetype file

CPAN

This module can be found on CPAN

You will see the landing page for the user documentation.

There is also a download link on the left side under "Tools".

BUILDING

The git repository contains much more than the software package itself.

If you check out sources here, you have to build the package yourself.

In order to do that you need perl and the module Dist::Zilla.

cpan install Dist::Zilla

or

cpanm Dist::Zilla

Then you have to check which further the Dist::Zilla plugins you miss:

dzil authordeps

and pipe them into your preferred installer:

dzil authordeps | cpanm

Than you can build a release yourself:

dzil build

Which gives you basically the same tgz file as under the download link from CPAN (as describes under HOME), just with more up to date (and maybe buggy) sources.

Don't forget to:

dzil clean

INSTALLING

Once you downloaded or created a build, you unzip it and do the usual:

perl Makefile.PL
make
make test
make install

This should install to your site_perl directory.

PREREQUISITES

perl 5.10
