README
# ack 3
ack is a code-searching tool, similar to grep but optimized for
programmers searching large trees of source code. It is highly
portable and runs on any platform that runs Perl.
ack is written and maintained by Andy Lester ([email protected]).

# Building
ack requires Perl 5.10.1 or higher, and it requires the
[File::Next](https://metacpan.org/pod/File::Next) module to be installed.
## Checking prerequisites
To check ack's dependencies, run this command in the shell:
perl -MFile::Next -E'say "ack is ready to build!"'
If everything is OK, you'll see:
ack is ready to build!
If your installation of Perl is outdated, you'll see an error like this:
Unrecognized switch: -Esay "ack is ready to build!" (-h will show valid options).
If you don't have File::Next installed, you'll see an error like this:
Can't locate File/Next.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /home/andy/...
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted.
and you'll need to install File::Next yourself:
# Install File::Next dependency
perl -MCPAN -e install File::Next
## Building ack
If you've got a recent enough version of Perl and you have File::Next
installed, you can build ack.
# Required
perl Makefile.PL
make
make test
sudo make install # For a system-wide installation
# - or -
make ack-standalone
cp ack-standalone ~/bin/ack3 # For a personal installation
