Devshed has published an interesting article written by a fellow monk.


The article has definitely a PerlMonks flavor (It is somehow rooted in it).
It seems the perfect representation on how to use the correct tools for the job. Plenty of modules usage, with examples.
I enjoyed it, as I am sure many of you will.

update
I was so pleased to see this abundance of modules that I failed to notice that the use strict was missing!
My editor adds it automatically in my new scripts, but it would be better to have it in the first place. Thanks broquaint.
