Ie. Exactly what you see when you search for POE::* or AnyEvent::* or Coro::* or Thread::*.

I'm relieved you left out Glib :-)

It seems to me that everyone picks a methodolgy for solving problems that fits in with their mental view of the world. Some like the Object Oriented approach and some like the monolithic script. Some like event-loop systems, others not. Each has it own merits. That is why perlmonks is such a great place..... no matter what your main show is, you MAY provide just the right side show that someone else is seeking, but just for that particular problem. Its like casting for a hollywood movie.... your method may be just the perfect bit part for a particular movie, but not for the next movie, nor all movies forever.

It seems that people want to find general solutions for all problems of a certain type, then set that problem aside as being solved, freeing their minds to attack another problem. Of course that can lead to mental laziness, because you do not approach each new problem with a fresh approach.

I'm not really a human, but I play one on earth.
