Well, it is not really cool, but useful (at least it was for me :-p)

The SYNOPSIS demonstrates the main functionality:

use LaTeX::Table; my $data = [ [ 'Lisa', '0', '0' ], [ 'Marge', '0', '1' ], [ 'Wiggum', '0', '5' ], [ 'Otto', '1', '3' ], [ 'Homer', '2', '6' ], [ 'Barney', '8', '16' ], ]; my $header = [ [ 'Name', 'Beers:2|c|' ], [ '', 'before 4pm', 'afte +r 4pm' ] ]; my $table = LaTeX::Table->new( { filename => 'counter.tex', caption => 'Number of beers before and after 4pm +.', maincaption => 'Beer Counter', label => 'table_beercounter', theme => 'Houston', tablepos => 'htb', } ); $table->generate( $header, $data )
It supports multipage tables (e.g. for appendices) and some predefined good looking table themes. Some feedback is highly appreciated before putting it on CPAN.

    Cool, so I'm not the only LaTeX using perler. Last time I combined them was with HTML::Template or something similar.
