It looks really interesting, but installing it from CPAN doesn't seem to work. I mean the install doesn't fail 
% cpanm App::pl
--> Working on App::pl
Fetching http://www.cpan.org/authors/id/P/PF/PFEIFFER/App-pl-v0.63.2.t

This just doesn't seem to install anything. As a comparison, installing App::cpanminus installs a program called cpanm

Also, when I repeat the above command, the output looks the same i.e. it re-installs instead of saying that App::pl is up to date (and still nothing is installed).
