It is stupidly complicated to detect whether a given scalar is a filehandle (or something filehandle like) in Perl. This module attempts to do so, but probably falls short in some cases. The primary advantage of using this module is that it gives you somebody to blame (me) if your code can't detect a filehandle. The main use case for IO::Detect is for when you are writing functions and you want to allow the caller to pass a file as an argument without being fussy as to whether they pass a file name or a file handle.

wtail does the equivalent of tail -f on several files at once. The screen is split into as many parts as there are files to watch.

pfm is a terminal (curses)-based file manager written in Perl, based on the PFM.COM for MS-DOS (originally by Paul Culley and Henk de Heer).

This module finds a DateTime::Format::* class that is suitable for the use with a given DBI connection (and DBD::* driver). It currently supports the following drivers: MySQL, PostgreSQL (Pg).

This simple test module checks the subroutines provided by a module. This is useful for confirming a planned API in testing and ensuring that other functions aren't unintentionally included via import.

ftpsync.pl synchronizes a local directory tree and a remote FTP directory tree. It was initally written to automize web publishing, but might be useful for some other purposes, like mirroring not-too-large public sites, data replication, and more.

This software converts a sequences record file generated by ttyrec into a gif animation directly using portable built-in terminal emulation engine originated from yaft. yaft provides rare terminal emulation features such as SIXEL/DRCS.
