Slurp that file

Slurp that file!
Read it in with style
Get it in your script
Parse it as you wish

When a file comes along
You can slurp it
If the file's not too long
You should slurp it
If you're thinking of this song
You must slurp it

Now slurp it
Into a $calar
Or an @rray
TIMTOWTDI says
More than one way
To slurp it
And slurp it good

Need to compare more than one line?
You can slurp it
Multiple records at a time?
You may slurp it
If Perl::Critic says it's fine
You Best slurp it

I say slurp it
Slurp it good
I say slurp it
Slurp it good

File::Slurp
slurp($file);
undef $RS
It's not too late
To slurp it
Well, slurp it good.
