CPAN is your friend (and is easy to search): Net::EasyTCP - Easily create secure, bandwidth-friendly TCP/IP clients and servers.

A program should be light and agile, its subroutines connected like a string of pearls. The spirit and intent of the program should be retained throughout. There should be neither too little or too much, neither needless loops nor useless variables, neither lack of structure nor overwhelming rigidity." - The Tao of Programming, 4.1 - Geoffrey James

    Thanks you for suggesting Net::EasyTCP. I looked at the docs and a few examples illustrating how this module could be used. Unfortunately (for me!), using this to write a server constrains it to speak to clients written using the same class: something I cannot guarantee in the present project. Apart from this constraint, it does look like a great module and I will look for an opportunity to use it in the future.
