use CPANPLUS::Shell;             # load the shell indicated by your
                                 # config -- defaults to
                                 # CPANPLUS::Shell::Default

use CPANPLUS::Shell qw[Classic]  # load CPANPLUS::Shell::Classic;

my $ui      = CPANPLUS::Shell->new();
my $name    = $ui->which;        # Find out what shell you loaded

$ui->shell;                      # run the ui shell

DESCRIPTION

This module is the generic loading (and base class) for all CPANPLUS shells. Through this module you can load any installed CPANPLUS shell.

Just about all the functionality is provided by the shell that you have loaded, and not by this class (which merely functions as a generic loading class), so please consult the documentation of your shell of choice.
