NAME

       ExtUtils::Miniperl - write the C code for perlmain.c

SYNOPSIS

           use ExtUtils::Miniperl;
           writemain(@directories);
           # or
           writemain($fh, @directories);
           # or
           writemain(\$filename, @directories);

DESCRIPTION

       "writemain()" takes an argument list of directories containing archive libraries that relate to perl
       modules and should be linked into a new perl binary. It writes a corresponding perlmain.c file that is a
       plain C file containing all the bootstrap code to make the modules associated with the libraries
       available from within perl.  If the first argument to "writemain()" is a reference to a scalar it is used
       as the filename to open for output. Any other reference is used as the filehandle to write to. Otherwise
       output defaults to "STDOUT".

       The typical usage is from within a Makefile generated by ExtUtils::MakeMaker. So under normal
       circumstances you won't have to deal with this module directly.
