 -a  lists all versions of the given module (or the matching modules, in
     case you used a module regexp) in the perls Module::CoreList knows
     about.

 -d  finds the first perl version where a module has been released by
     date, and not by version number (as is the default).

 --diff
     Given two versions of perl, this prints a human-readable table of all
     module changes between the two.  The output format may change in the
     future, and is meant for _h_u_m_a_n_s, not programs.  For programs, use the
     Module::CoreList API.

 -? or -help
     help! help! help! to see more help, try --man.

 -man
     all of the help

 -v  lists all of the perl release versions we got the CoreList for.

     If you pass a version argument (value of $], like 5.00503 or
     5.008008), you get a list of all the modules and their respective
     versions.  (If you have the "version" module, you can also use new-
     style version numbers, like 5.8.8.)

     In module filtering context, it can be used as Perl version filter.

 -r  lists all of the perl releases and when they were released

     If you pass a perl version you get the release date for that version
     only.

 --utils
     lists the first version of perl each named utility program was
     released with

     May be used with -d to modify the first release criteria.

     If used with -v <version> then all utilities released with that
     version of perl are listed, and any utility programs named on the
     command line are ignored.

 --feature, -f
     lists the first version bundle of each named feature given

 --upstream, -u
     Shows if the given module is primarily maintained in perl core or on
     CPAN and bug tracker URL.

 As a special case, if you specify the module name "Unicode", you'll get
 the version number of the Unicode Character Database bundled with the
 requested perl versions.
