in reply to Prima + MCE::Hobo demonstration

Thanks marioroy for this nth wonderful example!

I had not the time to investigate Prima before: when I checked no one at PM was using it. Now maybe the time to give it a serious check out is probably arrived.

The example runs fine and is a perfect skeleton code to work on!

I'm now at home on a machine where MCE::Hobo was not present; i've seen a stability canary chirping in my screen! thanks also for your care and attention you put in everything you release.

*** *** The stability canary says: chirp! chirp! (it seems to be quite hap +py) ***

I succesfully tested with strawberry 5.14.2 win7 Prima 1.51 MCE::Hobo 1.825

    Hi Discipulus. Interesting... IO::FDPass along with Sereal::Decoder and Sereal::Encoder are listed in the recommends section inside the Makefile.PL for MCE::Shared. It happens to be that Canary::Stability is a dependency for IO::FDPass.

    Folks running a recent Strawberry Perl binary will be happy to know that there's a ppm package already made. Just realized now that 1.46 was released about a year ago. Prima is at 1.51, currently.

    C:\perl-5.22.2.1>ppm PPM interactive shell (11.11_03) - type 'help' for available commands. PPM> install Prima Version 1.46 of 'Prima' is already installed. Remove it, or use 'verify --upgrade Prima'. PPM> exit Quit! C:\perl-5.22.2.1>

    I received a tip from Discipulus via email that Prima installs fine on Strawberry Perl with the following command. The --skiptest argument is necessary to overcome a failing mouse simulation test.

    cpanp i Prima --skiptest

    Thank you, Discipulus.
