There's also stevieb's excellent node Wrapping a C shared library with Perl and XS -- where he shared his process for prototyping with Inline::C and using the CLEAN_AFTER_BUILD to then snag the XS it creates to convert the module into an XS distribution. It's quite the detailed step-by-step, and may come in handy for any reading this portion of the thread, who may be wanting to get started in XS. (I was surprised when he didn't link it himself in Re: XS, raspberry pi, and a hundred bucks.... or at least in his response to Re^2: XS, raspberry pi, and a hundred bucks in Re^3: XS, raspberry pi, and a hundred bucks.)

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
