Perl

To see what modules are running on your unix machine
> find `perl -e 'print "@INC"'` -name '*.pm' -print

To use the CPAN shell tool:
> sudo perl -MCPAN -e shell

> install Spread***::WriteExcel

With this command, the CPAN shell will automatically download the
module, find & retrieve any dependencies like Parse::RecDescent and
File::Temp, and unpack, configure, make, test, and install for you.

To print the version

The cat command is a standard Unix program used to concatenate and display files. The name is from catenate, a synonym of concatenate.

grep is a command line text search utility originally written for Unix. The program's name derives from the UNIX ed comman, g/re/p which performs a similar operation.

Although grep is not strictly an acronym, the letters are taken from global / regular expression / print, a series of instructions for the ed text editor. The grep command searches files or standard input globally for lines matching a given regular expression, and prints them to the program's standard output.

> cat *.txt grep Interesting awk '{print $4}' sort uniq
This statement is utilized with a nmap statement. Used to search and publish the IP address from the scans tagged as 'Interesting'.
