Perlbrew support in Emacs Flymake

Good news for fans of App::perlbrew and Emacs Flymake: I've updated my fork of Flymake to include automatic support for perlbrew.
If you do a perlbrew switch
in one window, the next run of
Flymake in a Perl buffer will automatically update your $PATH
in Emacs with the changes Perlbrew made.
Emacs-flymake-perlcritic overrides the code that was changed, but has also been updated to take advantage of the Perlbrew $PATH sync if it's available. This means that if you're using both you'll need to update both to see the changes.
If you're wondering what either of these are, the article "Perl and PHP continuous static analysis with Emacs Flymake" may help explain.
App::podweaver 1.00 (belatedly) released
Date: Sunday, 9 October 2011, 21:59.
Categories: perl, ironman, pod-weaver, app-podweaver.
Yanick Champoux has posted the first of what promises to be an interesting series of blogs: Taming Pod::Weaver.
In it he mentions App::podweaver, which reminded me - a year after the fact - that I hadn't released a stable release yet.
So I have. Should be hitting a CPAN mirror near you soon.
Biggest change is that it should now respect perlbrew installs.
