This is the README for File::Versions version 0.09.
File::Versions is a "module" for the Perl computer programming language, a
library of computer code to install on a computer. This document contains
four sections:
1. About - what the module does
2. Documentation - how to learn more about the module
3. Installation - how to install this module on a computer
4. Help - what to do if you get stuck
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. ABOUT
File::Versions - Emacs-like versioned file names
This module duplicates the behaviour of programs like the Emacs text
editor under Unix, where the environment variables "VERSION_CONTROL"
and "SIMPLE_VERSION_CONTROL" allow one to make numbered backups of a
file.

websites:
* http://search.cpan.org/perldoc?File::Versions

After installing the module, you can read the documentation on your
computer using
