NAME
     pmdesc - print out version and whatis description of perl
     modules

DESCRIPTION
     Given one or more module names, show the version number (if
     known) and the `whatis' line, that is, the NAME section's
     description, typically used for generation whatis databases.

EXAMPLES
         $ pmdesc IO::Socket
         IO::Socket (1.25) - Object interface to socket communications

         $ oldperl pmdesc IO::Socket
         IO::Socket (1.1603) - Object interface to socket communications

         $ pmdesc `pminst -s | perl -lane 'print $F[1] if $F[0] =~ /site/'`
         XML::Parser::Expat (2.19) - Lowlevel access to James Clark's expat XML parser
         XML::Parser (2.19) - A perl module for parsing XML documents

RESTRICTIONS
     This only works on modules.  It should also work on
     filenames, but then it's a bit tricky finding out the
     package to call the VERSION method on.
