   --debug     - run in debug mode (print even banal messages)
   -q          - run in quiet mode (don't print status)
   -qq         - run in silent mode (don't even print warnings)
   -c CLASS    - what class to use to mirror (default: CPAN::Mini)
   -C FILE     - what config file to use (default: ~/.minicpanrc)

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This simple shell script just updates (or creates) a miniature CPAN mirror as
described in CPAN::Mini.

=head1 PERL VERSION

This library should run on perls released even a long time ago.  It should
work on any version of perl released in the last five years.

Although it may work on older versions of perl, no guarantee is made that the
minimum required version will not be increased.  The version may be increased
for any reason, and there is no promise that patches will be accepted to
lower the minimum required perl.

=head1 CONFIGURATION FILE

By default, C<minicpan> will read a configuration file to get configuration
information.  The file is a simple set of names and values, as in the following
example:

 local:  /home/rjbs/mirrors/minicpan/
 remote: http://your.favorite.cpan/cpan/
 exact_mirror: 1

C<minicpan> tries to find a configuration file through the following process.
It takes the first defined it finds:

=over 4

=item * Use the value specified by C<-C> on the command line

=item * Use the value in the C<CPAN_MINI_CONFIG> environment variable

=item * Use F<~/.minicpanrc>

=item * Use F<CPAN/Mini/minicpan.conf>

=back

If the selected file does not exist, C<minicpan> does not keep looking.

You can override this process with a C<config_file> method in your subclass.

See C<CPAN::Mini> for a full listing of available options.

=head1 TO DO

Improve command-line options.
