The Term::Animation Perl module provides a framework to produce sprite animations using ASCII art. Each ASCII 'sprite' is given one or more frames, and placed into the animation as an 'animation entity'. An animation entity can have a callback routine that controls the position and frame of the entity. The module can also do collision detection between entities.

Parse::CPAN::Meta is a parser for META.json and META.yml files, using JSON::PP and/or CPAN::Meta::YAML.

This module is a helper for easily finding configuration file locations. This information can be used to find a suitable place for installing configuration files or for finding any piece of settings.

Storable brings persistence to your Perl data structures containing SCALAR, ARRAY, HASH or REF objects, i.e. anything that can be conveniently stored to disk and retrieved at a later time.

Perl is a general-purpose programming language originally developed for text manipulation and now used for a wide range of tasks including system administration, web development, network programming, GUI development, and more.

This module implements a subset of the YAML specification for use in reading and writing CPAN metadata files like META.yml and MYMETA.yml.

YAML::Syck provides a Perl interface to the libsyck data serialization library. It exports the Dump and Load functions for converting Perl data structures to YAML strings, and the other way around.

Authen::DecHpwd implements the SYS$HASH_PASSWORD password hashing function from VMS (also known as LGI$HPWD) and some associated VMS username and password handling functions. The password hashing function is implemented in XS with a pure Perl backup version for systems that cannot handle XS.

This module is for reading record-oriented data in a delimited text file. The most common example have records separated by newlines and fields separated by commas or tabs, but this module aims to provide a consistent interface for handling sequential records in a file however they may be delimited.

List::MoreUtils::XS provides some trivial but commonly needed functionality on lists which is not going to go into List::Util.

The Error package provides two interfaces. Firstly Error provides a procedural interface to exception handling. Secondly Error is a base class for errors/exceptions that can either be thrown, for subsequent catch, or can simply be recorded.

This module provides a simple but extensible way of having plugins for your Perl module.

This Digest::Perl::MD5 has the same interface as the much faster Digest::MD5, but it's a pure Perl implementation of MD5. Because of this it is slow but it works without C code.

Manipulating stashes (Perl's symbol tables) is occasionally necessary, but incredibly messy, and easy to get wrong. This module hides all of that behind a simple API.

Collection of classes that wrap fundamental data types that exist in Perl. These classes and methods as they exist today are an attempt to mirror functionality provided by Moose's Native Traits. One important thing to note is all classes currently do no validation on constructor input.

While Mouse attributes provide a way to name your accessors, readers, writers, clearers and predicates, MouseX::NativeTraits provides commonly used attribute helper methods for more specific types of data.

This module provides an XS implementation for portions of Class::Load.

Term::ProgressBar::Simple tells you how much work has been done, how much is left to do, and estimate how long it will take.

Set::Object provides efficient sets, unordered collections of Perl objects without duplicates for scalars and references.

This package provides Digest::SHA3, an implementation of the NIST SHA-3 message digest algorithm for use by Perl programs.

Locale::gettext provides an object oriented interface to the internationalization functions provided by the C library.

SDL Perl is a package of Perl modules that provide both functional and object oriented interfaces to the Simple DirectMedia Layer for Perl5. This package takes some liberties with the SDL API, and attempts to adhere to the spirit of both the SDL and Perl.

This Perl module facilitates the creation and modification of PDF files.

This module provides a basic way to discover if a piece of perl code is allocating perl data and not releasing them again.
