=head1 NAME

Bot::BasicBot::Pluggable::Module::CoreList - IRC frontend to Module::CoreList

=head1 SYNOPSIS

    < you> bot: corelist File::Spec
    < bot> File::Spec was first released with perl 5.00503 (released on 1999-03-28)

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This module is a frontend to the excellent C<Module::CoreList> module
which will let you know what modules shipped with which versions of perl,
over IRC.

=head1 IRC USAGE

The robot replies to requests in the following form:

    corelist <subcommand> [args]

=head2 Commands

The robot understand the following subcommands:

=over 4

=item * release

=item * date

    < you> bot: corelist release Test::More
    < bot> you: Test::More was first released with perl 5.7.3 (released on 2002-03-05)

If no command is given, C<release> is the default.

=item * search

=item * find

    < you> bot corelist search Data
    < bot> Found Data::Dumper, Module::Build::ConfigData

Perl version numbers can be passed as optional parameters to restrict
the search:

    < you> corelist search Data 5.006
    < bot> Found Data::Dumper in perl 5.006

The search never returns more than 9 replies, to avoid flooding the channel:

    < you> bot: corelist find e
    < bot> Found AnyDBM_File, AutoLoader, B::Assembler, B::Bytecode, B::Debug, B::Deparse, B::Disassembler, B::Showlex, B::Terse, ...

using this module.
