Description from the home page: Devel::LexAlias provides the ability to alias a lexical variable in a subroutines scope to one of your choosing. If you don't know why you'd want to do this, I'd suggest that you skip this module. If you think you have a use for it, I'd insist on it. Still here? lexalias( $where, $name, $variable ) $where refers to the subroutine in which to alias the lexical, it can be a coderef or a call level such that you'd give to caller $name is the name of the lexical within that subroutine $variable is a reference to the variable to install at that location

Log::Dispatch::Config is a wrapper for Log::Dispatch and provides a way to configure Log::Dispatch objects with configuration files. Somewhat like a lite version of log4j and Log::Log4perl it allows multiple log destinations. The standard configuration file format for Log::Dispatch::Config is AppConfig. This module plugs in to Log::Dispatch::Config and allows the use of other file formats, in fact any format supported by the Config::Any module. As a bonus you can also pass in a configuration data structure instead of a file name.

Moose is a postmodern object system for Perl5. Moose is wonderful. Unfortunately, Moose has a compile-time penalty. Though significant progress has been made over the years, the compile time penalty is a non-starter for some very specific applications. If you are writing a command-line application or CGI script where startup time is essential, you may not be able to use Moose (we recommend that you instead use persistent Perl executing environments like FastCGI for the latter, if possible). Mouse is a Moose compatible object system, which aims to alleviate this penalty by providing a subset of Moose's functionality.

Writing table-driven tests is usually a good idea. Adding a test case doesn't require adding code, so it's easy to avoid fucking up the other tests. However, actually going from a table of tests to a test that runs is non-trivial. Test::TableDriven makes writing the test drivers trivial. You simply define your test cases and write a function that turns the input data into output data to compare against. Test::TableDriven will compute how many tests need to be run, and then run the tests. Concentrate on your data and what you're testing, not plan tests = scalar keys %test_cases> and a big foreach loop.

Test::WWW::Mechanize is a subclass of WWW::Mechanize that incorporates features for web application testing. The Test::WWW::Mechanize::Catalyst module meshes the two to allow easy testing of Catalyst applications without starting up a web server. Testing web applications has always been a bit tricky, normally starting a web server for your application and making real HTTP requests to it. This module allows you to test Catalyst web applications but does not start a server or issue HTTP requests. Instead, it passes the HTTP request object directly to Catalyst. Thus you do not need to use a real hostname: "http://localhost/" will do.

This package generates a comprehensive information page for your current PEAR install. * The format for the page is similar to that for phpinfo() except using PEAR colors. * Has complete PEAR Credits (based on the packages you have installed). * Will show if there is a newer version than the one presently installed (and what its state is) * Each package has an anchor in the form pkg_PackageName - where PackageName is a case-sensitive PEAR package name With a few parameters, the entire package.xml is automatically updated with a listing of all files in a package.

Warbler is a gem to make a .war file out of a Rails project. The intent is to provide a minimal, flexible, ruby-like way to bundle up all of your application files for deployment to a Java application server. Warbler provides a sane set of out-of-the box defaults that should allow most Rails applications without external gem dependencies (aside from Rails itself) to assemble and Just Work. Warbler bundles JRuby and the JRuby-Rack servlet adapter for dispatching requests to your application inside the java application server, and assembles all jar files in WARBLER_HOME/lib/*.jar into your application. No external dependencies are downloaded.

Apache OpenOffice is an Open Source, community-developed, multi-platform office productivity suite. It includes the key desktop applications, such as a word processor, spreadsheet, presentation manager, and drawing program, with a user interface and feature set similar to other office suites. Components include: * A universal word processing application for creating business letters, extensive text documents, professional layouts, and HTML documents. * A sophisticated application for performing advanced spreadsheet functions, such as analyzing figures, creating lists, and viewing data. * A tool for creating effective eye-catching presentations. * A vector-oriented draw module that enables the creation of 3D illustrations

Bombz is a simple 2D puzzle game. It doesn't really have a plot. The object is to blow up all the bombs on each level then escape off the edge of the screen. To blow up a bomb, push it to where you want to cause an explosion, then collect a match (originally a detonator in the Archimedes version) and touch the bomb again and quickly get out of the way. A bomb destroys everything surrounding it except the metallic walls; if it blows up another bomb, that takes out everything around it too so you can set off chain reactions.
