It is a front-end to the functionality provided in PPM.pm. It can determine if the most recent version of a software package is installed on a system, and can install or upgrade that package from a local or remote host.ppm runs in one of two modes: an interactive shell from which commands may be entered; and command-line mode, in which one specific action is performed per invocation of the program.ppm uses files containing an extended form of the Open Software Description (OSD) specification for information about software packages. These description files, which are written in Extensible Markup Language (XML) code, are referred to as 'PPD' files. Information about OSD can be found at the W3C web site (at the time of this writing, http://www.w3.org/TR/NOTE-OSD.html). The extensions to OSD used by ppm are documented in PPM.ppd.
