Tip: Install a CPAN module directly from URL

I wonder how many people know this. With CPANPLUS, you can install any cpan module directly from its tarball URL:

cpanp -i http://search.cpan.org/CPAN/authors/id/M/MI/MIYAGAWA/Plack-0.99_02.tar.gz

Very handy, indeed.

Also: "pip " which I just used to install Padre 0.56 because cpanf can't find it yet.
