Actually, the SYS::sigaction module is more friendly and quite easy to use. It is a wrapper for the POSIX::sigaction module.

    Sys::SigAction isn't evil, but it's kind of pointless, IMO. A whole module just to avoid a few SigAction object accessor calls? Hardly worth the trouble.

      I agree with you conditionally... in a multi-developer enterprise environment where skills are uneven, the maintainability of the scripts/applications are paramount. That means it has to be readable at a glance. Avoiding complex regular expressions (breaking them into multiple operations), long variable names, etc.
