Allegro is a cross-platform library intended for use in computer games and
other types of multimedia programming.
A wide range of extension packages and add-on modules are also available, which
can be found in the "Library Extensions" section of the Allegro website.
Spiffy is a framework and methodology for doing object oriented
programming in Perl. Spiffy combines the best parts of Exporter.pm,
base.pm, mixin.pm and SUPER.pm into one magic foundation class. It
attempts to fix all the nits and warts of traditional Perl OO, in a
clean, straightforward and (perhaps someday) standard way.
Stream::Buffered is a buffer class to store arbitrary length of byte
strings and then get a seekable filehandle once everything is
buffered. It uses PerlIO and/or temporary file to save the buffer
depending on the length of the size.
The "String::Similarity" calculates the similarity index of its two
arguments. A value of '0' means that the strings are entirely
different. A value of '1' means that the strings are identical.
Everything else lies between 0 and 1 and describes the amount of
similarity between the strings.
SVN::ACL is a simple frontend to make the svnserve.conf, passwd,
authz for Subversion.
After subversion 1.3.0, it offers the new access control for
using the svnserve. When you use svnadmin to create a new
subversion repository. The svnserve.conf, passwd and authz will
be generated by subversion automatically.
This module provides regular svn operations on check out directory.
It tries to do this in a simplest form possible. All operations are
currently performed by running svn binary directly. Thus it is
probably unportable. For a much more powerful way of working with
svn repository see SVN::Client.
Sys::Sendfile provides access to your operating system's sendfile
facility. It allows you to efficiently transfer data from one
filehandle to another. Typically the source is a file on disk and the
sink is a socket, and some operating systems may not even support
other usage.
Have you ever tried to debug a test script that is failing tests? Without too
many modifications, your test script can generate a log file with information
about each failed test.
You can take your existing test script, and with (hopefully) very little
effort, convert it to use Test::Debugger. Then re-run your modified test and
view the log file it creates.
Sys::SigAction - Perl extension for Consistent Signal Handling.
With the use of this module, the signal handling behavior
can be coded in a way that does not change from one perl version
to the next, and thus using POSIX::sigaction() becomes a little easier.
Term::Size::Any is a unified interface to retrieve terminal size. It loads one
module of a list of known alternatives, each implementing some way to get the
desired terminal information. This loaded module will actually do the job on
behalf of Term::Size::Any.
