This Perl module implements Future, an object representing an operation that is currently in progress, or has recently completed. It can be used in a variety of ways to manage the flow of control, and data, through an asynchronous program.

This module automagically generates accessors/mutators for your class.

This module handles parsing, modifying and creating configuration files of the style used by the Git version control system.

Data::Float is about the native floating point numerical data type. A floating point number is one of the types of datum that can appear in the numeric part of a Perl scalar. This module supplies constants describing the native floating point type, classification functions and functions to manipulate floating point values at a low level.

Clipboard provides functionality to copy and paste with any OS.

This Perl library provides a function which tells whether a specific time falls within a specified time period. Its syntax for specifying time periods allows you to test for conditions like "Monday to Friday, 9am till 5pm" and "on the second Tuesday of the month" and "between 4pm and 4:15pm" and "in the first half of each minute" and "in January of 1998".

IO::String is an IO::File (and IO::Handle) compatible class that reads or writes data from in-core strings.

Term::ProgressBar is a wonderful module for showing progress bars on the terminal. This module acts very much like that module when it is run interactively. However, when it is not run interactively (for example, as a cron job) then it does not show the progress bar.

Path::Iterator::Rule iterates over files and directories to identify ones matching a user-defined set of rules. The API is based heavily on File::Find::Rule, but with more explicit distinction between matching rules and options that influence how directories are searched. A Path::Iterator::Rule object is a collection of rules (match criteria) with methods to add additional criteria. Options that control directory traversal are given as arguments to the method that generates an iterator.

A summary of features for comparison to other file finding modules:

• provides many helper methods for specifying rules

• offers (lazy) iterator and flattened list interfaces

• custom rules implemented with callbacks

• breadth-first (default) or pre- or post-order depth-first searching

• follows symlinks (by default, but can be disabled)

• directories visited only once (no infinite loop; can be disabled)

• doesn't chdir during operation

• provides an API for extensions

As a convenience, the PIR module is an empty subclass of this one that is less arduous to type for one-liners.

This module is intended as a drop-in replacement for NEXT, supporting the same interface, but using Class::C3 to do the hard work.

Data::SExpression parses Lisp S-Expressions into Perl data structures.

Pegex is an Acmeist parser framework. It allows you to easily create parsers that will work equivalently in lots of programming languages. The inspiration for Pegex comes from the parsing engine upon which the postmodern programming language Perl 6 is based on. Pegex brings this beauty to the other justmodern languages that have a normal regular expression engine available.

Struct::Dumb creates record-like structure types, similar to the struct keyword in C, C++ or C#, or Record in Pascal. An invocation of this module will create a construction function which returns new object references with the given field values. These references all respond to lvalue methods that access or modify the values stored.

"require EXPR" only accepts Class/Name.pm style module names, not Class::Name. For that, this module provides "load_class 'Class::Name'".

Test::Run is an improved test harness, originally based on Test::Harness version 2.xx by Michael G. Schwern, Andy Lester and others.

The top-level "Test::Run" by itself does not do much. You should refer to Task::Test::Run::AllPlugins for more detailed instructions.

The Eval::WithLexicals Perl library provides support for lexical scope evaluation. This package also includes the tinyrepl command, which can be used as a minimal Perl read-eval-print loop (REPL).

This module allows for anonymous packages that are independent of the main namespace and only available through an object instance, not by name.

This module exports a single hash (%RE) that stores or generates commonly needed regular expressions. Patterns currently provided include: balanced parentheses and brackets, delimited text (with escapes), integers and floating-point numbers in any base (up to 36), comments in 44 languages, offensive language, lists of any pattern, IPv4 addresses, URIs, and Zip codes.

MailTools contains the following modules:

Mail::Address

Parse email address from a header line.

Mail::Cap

Interpret mailcap files: mappings of file-types to applications as used by many command-line email programs.

Mail::Field

Simplifies access to (some) email header fields. Used by Mail::Header.

Mail::Filter

Process Mail::Internet messages.

Mail::Header

Collection of Mail::Field objects, representing the header of a Mail::Internet object.

Mail::Internet

Represents a single email message, with header and body.

Mail::Mailer

Send Mail::Internet emails via direct smtp or local MTA's.

Mail::Send

Build a Mail::Internet object, and then send it out using Mail::Mailer.

Mail::Util

"Smart functions" you should not depend on.

The functions exported by this module deal with runtime handling of Perl modules, which are normally handled at compile time.

Growl::GNTP is a Perl implementation of the client part of the Growl Notification Transport Protocol (GNTP).

This module can serve as a transparent interface to any TIEHASH package that is required to store arbitrary perl data, including nested references. Thus, this module can be used for storing references and other arbitrary data within DBM databases.

IO::All combines all of the best Perl IO modules into a single nifty object oriented interface to greatly simplify your everyday Perl IO idioms. It exports a single function called io, which returns a new IO::All object. And that object can do it all!

Strictures turns on strict and make all warnings fatal when run from within a source-controlled directory.
