Well, we come from different places. It looks like you do objects, while (so far) I've mostly done huge strings of little programs in Unix pipelines.

Trying to remember what each of these components do is hard. That's why I include the massive pod skeleton. Even I often delete it if I know the program has no future ...

Some people have complained that the pod has way too many sections. Sure it does if you're writing a little module for other programmers. When I wrote the first version of this program, I was writing Unix extension commands, which had to have full manual pages for Real Users (TM). Thus I ripped the headings off from a man page style guide.

I'll bet PerlBean doesn't know about awk, while perlheader does ;-)
