  # NAME
  
  CLI::Ecosystem - Raku® Programming Language Ecosystem Inspector
  
  # SYNOPSIS
  
  ```
  $ ecosystem dis Foo --verbose
  Distributions that match Foo and their frequency
  --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  App::Football (6x)
  Foo (3x)
  WebService::FootballData (5x)
  
  ```
  
  # DEPRECATION NOTICE
  
  This distribution has basically been superseded by the [`App::Ecosystems`](https://raku.land/zef:lizmat/App::Ecosystems) distribution which provides a better user experience by providing a dedicated prompt from which to peruse an ecosystem, thereby being able to keep more state, and thus have less startup time.
