Hi Johan,

Oh, I misunderstood your mail at first - I thought that this was just 
not documented. Well anyway have any of your scripts submitted this way 
appeared in the list at:

http://www.cpan.org/scripts/

I cannot seem to locate any, but then again the list does not specify 
authors - so I just poked for goodies like: makepatch and cpancd
