Description:

*Module::Extract* is a convenience base class for creating module that work
with Perl distributions.

Its purpose is to take care of the mechanisms of locating and extracting a
Perl distribution so that your module can do something specific to the
distribution.

This module was originally created to provide an abstraction for the
extraction logic for both the Module::Inspector manpage and the Module::P4P
manpage and to allow additional features to be added in the future without
having to modify both of them, because the general problem of "locate,
download, and expand a distribution" is one that is almost ideal for adding
additional features down the line.
