2026-06-11: time-date-pm-2.35-1 (Perl5 TimeDate distribution)The parser contained here will only parse absolute dates, if you want a date parser that can parse relative dates then take a look at the Time modules by David Muir on CPAN. commit log from Daniel Macks ([email protected]): perlmod updates (dual-lifed in fink bootstrap)2026-06-11: locale-textdomain-pm-1.37-1 (Perl module for string internationalization)
This package is an internationalization library for Perl that aims to be compatible with the Uniforum message translations system as implemented for example in GNU gettext. This package is also called: libintl-perl. This package is a pure-perl implementation (gettext_pp). Fink scrapped the compiled C component (gettext_xs) as of 1.32-2 in order to avoid needing perl-versioning in fink core (newer dpkg, and texinfo). If anyone wants gettext_xs (libintl-perl-xs), let us know. commit log from Daniel Macks ([email protected]): perlmod updates (dual-lifed in fink bootstrap)2026-06-11: less-704-1 (Featureful text pager)
less is a featureful replacement for the more command. It reads text from a file or a pipe and displays it inside the terminal. It allows you to scroll forwards and backwards, search the text and do other nifty things with it. commit log from Daniel Macks ([email protected]): less: new version2026-06-09: vim-9.2.612-1 (Improved version of the editor "vi")
