It's not your fault - The CPAN docs *are* hard to get to. HFS+ thinks
"CPAN" and "cpan" are the same thing, so there's a trick to it. If
you look at "perldoc CPAN", what you actually get is the perldocs
from the /usr/bin/cpan script. To get the docs for the CPAN.pm
module, you need to use "perldoc CPAN.pm", including the .pm extension.
The module docs list the configuration options.
