I was really, really sure that I had seen something that allowed this somewhere, probably on O'Reilly, since I once looked for just the same thing. Now I can't find it anywhere, so either I was dreaming or they have removed it - it was a while ago, after all.

Anyhow, I did find this extensive (not) link about something called JPerl, which looks like exactly what you want. However, looking more closely, it seems to be quite old, but that doesn't mean that it can't work - and maybe you can see how that one worked and adopt it to newer versions... hopefully realeasing a new cool version back into the wild. :)

(It is also possible that this is what I thought I remembered, although if so, it was packaged and sold earlier (say a few years back). It is possible.)

You have moved into a dark place.
It is pitch black. You are likely to be eaten by a grue.
