I want to know if there is a way (module) to parse a Perl code (source) and have a tree of it, to than rewrite this code with the style that the user want. Note that this need to be done without run/load the code by the interpreter.

This is for an Perl editor that I'm working on, and I want to know if exist some good module to do that, or I need to write it?! If I need to write it where I can find a good doc about all the definition of all the operators, types, etc... Since I need to make something compatible with the Perl internal definition, not invent it.
