finding net::Ping

[Ben]

Hi,

I have the line "use net:ing" in a perl script and then later a call
to a function called pingecho. How do I find out what pingecho does.
Where do I find net:ing?

Thanks,
Ben

I shall assume you mean "use Net:ing"

in a perl script and then later a call to a function called
pingecho. How do I find out what pingecho does.

Look at the source or read the documentation (perldoc Net:ing).

Where do I find net:ing?

In the usual place (see FAQ "What modules and extensions are available
for Perl?...").

Where the Spelling Police put it in the evidence locker.

Its name is Net:ing, not net:ing. Case matters.
