NAME Alien::patch - Find or build patch VERSION version 0.04 SYNOPSIS use Alien::patch; # patch should now be in your PATH if it wasn't already DESCRIPTION Many environments provide the patch command, but a few do not. Using this module in your Build.PL (or elsewhere) you can make sure that patch will be available. If the system provides it, then great, this module is a no-op. If it does not, then it will download and install it into a private location so that it can be added to the PATH when this module is used.
