options
-a
lists all versions of the given
module (or the matching modules, in case you used a module
regexp) in the perls Module::CoreList knows about.
corelist -a utf8
utf8 was first released with perl 5.006
5.006 undef
5.006001 undef
5.006002 undef
5.007003 1.00

-d
finds the first perl version
where a module has been released by date, and not by version
number (as is the default).
-? or -help
help! help! help! to see more
help, try --man.
-man
all of the help
-v
lists all of the perl release versions we got the
CoreList for.
If you pass a
version argument (value of $], like
5.00503 or 5.008008), you get a list of
all the modules and their respective versions. (If you have
the "version" module, you can also use
new-style version numbers, like 5.8.8.)
In module
filtering context, it can be used as Perl version
filter.
As a special
case, if you specify the module name
"Unicode", you’ll get the version
number of the Unicode Character Database bundled with the
requested perl versions.
