=head1 NAME

pmdesc - print out version and whatis description of perl modules

=head1 DESCRIPTION

Given one or more module names, show the version number (if known)
and the `whatis' line, that is, the NAME section's description,
typically used for generation whatis databases.

=head1 EXAMPLES

    $ pmdesc IO::Socket
    IO::Socket (1.25) - Object interface to socket communications

    $ oldperl pmdesc IO::Socket
    IO::Socket (1.1603) - Object interface to socket communications

    $ pmdesc `pminst -s | perl -lane 'print $F[1] if $F[0] =~ /site/'`
    XML::Parser::Expat (2.19) - Lowlevel access to James Clark's expat XML parser
    XML::Parser (2.19) - A perl module for parsing XML documents

=head1 RESTRICTIONS

This only works on modules.  It should also work on filenames, but then
it's a bit tricky finding out the package to call the VERSION method on.
