Games::2048
Author: MIYAGAWA <https://metacpan.org/author/MIYAGAWA>
It's rather unfortunate that currently the choice for general
purpose cross-platform filesystem notification modules on CPAN falls
between this module (FNS) or File::ChangeNotify (F::CN). The other
CPAN modules are either OS-/framework-specific. <br><br>FNS has a
simple API but is perhaps too simple for some uses, while F::CN uses
Moose and has a big startup overhead. <br><br>If you simply want to
check from time to time whether a change has occured, you need to
wrap the wait() method with alarm(). And I found on my Linux PC that
I need a timeout of at least 3 seconds for this to work reliably.

experimental

Vote +1 to add this to core. Please make coding in Perl 5 relatively
painless.

Also look at Text::CharWidth for an alternative that can be used
with text in other languages (Chinese, etc). <br>
Taint::Runtime
Author: RHANDOM <https://metacpan.org/author/RHANDOM>
Nice idea. Perl should really have included something like this
(analogous to warnings.pm for -w). <br><br>However, for something as
security-related as tainting, I personally think the interface is a
bit too complex and not robust enough. There are too many pitfalls
where one can fail to turn on tainting properly. <br><br>* First,
user must remember to import $TAINT, or doing '$TAINT = 1' has no
effect. There's no error/warning for this mistake. <br><br>* Then,
if one also forgets to import taint_start or taint_start, then doing
'taint_start' or 'taint_env' (without parentheses) will do nothing.
Also does not produce an error/warning except under strict mode.
<br><br>* One must remember to 'taint_env' *after* 'taint_start'.
There's no warning/error if one does the opposite. <br><br>I'd
rather have something like this: <br><br>{ <br><br>use tainting;
Perl::Squish

Cute idea as always, though I'd rather use comments rather than

Author: DIZ <https://metacpan.org/author/DIZ>
Sorry to have to rate with 1 star. I don't have problem with the
interface/documentation. The 1-star rating is just to warn people
that the data used by this module is not up to date. And that
YEARS-old bugs are not being fixed. <br><br>At the time of this
writing, this module still uses ISO 3166-2:1998 (first edition) +
the newsletters (minor updates) up to 2006. When it should be
updated to ISO 3166-2:2007 (second edition) + all the newsletters.
For example, this module does not report 3 newer provinces in
Indonesia. <br><br>Sadly we live in a world where countries and
subcountries change all the time.

Author: KIMRYAN <https://metacpan.org/author/KIMRYAN>
UPDATE 2012-08-30: I am not sure if the module is now fully
compliant to the new ISO 2007, but bug reports are certainly being
responded and resolved now. Updating rating from 1-star to 4-star.

Bash::Completion
Author: MELO <https://metacpan.org/author/MELO>
Clean code, plugin interface simple to use, but implementation needs
to be improved. For example, parsing $ENV{COMP_LINE} &
$ENV{COMP_POINT} into @argv is done simplistically using
split(/\h+/), without regard to shell's quotes/escapes.
(Getopt::Complete's way is somewhat better by invoking shell, but it
also has its problems. I guess in this regard external programs are
second-class citizens to shell functions because they don't get the
equivalents of COMP_WORDS/COMP_CWORD). <br>

Bash::Completion::Plugins::cpanm
Author: PERLER <https://metacpan.org/author/PERLER>
Cool, except that with cpanm I often install local distribution
(cpanm Foo-Bar-1.23.tar.gz). Perhaps the completion can look in the
filesystem first before firing API request. Also, might be nice if

autodie
Author: TODDR <https://metacpan.org/author/TODDR>
I started using autodie in almost all of my applications a few
months ago. It's somewhat of a mixed blessing. For existing
applications, it can break things and making things less robust,
solely because old code are not built with autodie in mind.
<br><br>But the best thing about it is that it's lexically scoped,
so for sections of code that you're not sure about, just sprinkle
'no autodie' to get the old behaviour. <br><br>It should be used on
probably 95% of code out there. For the rest of the cases, where you
need to report the status of each I/O operation, it's obviously more
convenient to check $? instead of trapping exception everytime.
<br><br>+1 for getting it into core. <br>
App::FileTools::BulkRename
Disclaimer: I maintain a "competitor" module, App::perlmv.
Apparently a lot of people, like me, likes to rename files using
Perl. And the examples in the documentation are about renaming movie
filesystem differences can be tricky, and CPAN Testers can help
providing feedback. <br><br>Keep up the good work.
Rating: 8/10
Script::State
Author: MOTEMEN <https://metacpan.org/author/MOTEMEN>
Nice idea, straight and simple interface. A better name could
perhaps be chosen? Documentation should be expanded, e.g. to warn
users about security, since Data::Dumper a.k.a. eval() is used to
load variable content. Also, the implementation does not yet
consider file locking.
PathTools
I guess File::Spec's API is sane enough, but I suspect not a lot of
people are using it because there's not enough incentive for it.
When 99% population of the world use Unix/Linux/Windows (even Macs
been technically Unix for a number of years), "/" works
everywhere and using File::Spec does not gain you anything except
lots of typing exercise. <br><br>That's why I think Path::Class
or other whistles and bells. And the interface & default levels
are rather syslog-oriented. But it's fast alright. The POD doesn't
mention a comparison to Log::Log4perl, but a casual benchmark shows
that it's at least 10x faster. <br><br>So this module will certainly
come handy if you have a performance critical application.
<br><br>Btw, note that the benchmarks are done for actual logging to
output. For log statements that do not actually get logged (e.g.
because the level is below the desired output level), I don't find
that extreme differences in overhead between logging frameworks. For
example, on my Athlon64 X2 5600+ PC, Log::Fast's overhead is roughly
around 3mils/sec, while Log::Log4perl is around 1,5mils/sec.
Log::Minimal
Author: KAZEBURO <https://metacpan.org/author/KAZEBURO>
Log::Minimal's slogan is "minimal but customizable". It's
minimal alright, probably only suitable for simple scripts as the
moment you organize your application/library into separate modules,
you'll want/need categories instead of just level, which is not
provided by Log::Minimal. <br><br>Also, only formats is
customizable, there is currently no way to customize level. And the
This module has been developed for more than a decade and seen
different maintainers over the years. The codebase is indeed showing
these, with different capitalization and indentation styles, among
other things. <br><br>However, among more than a dozen or so of INI
modules in CPAN, ironically there seems to be few other choices if
you go beyond the most basic feature set. Some INI modules can only
simplistically rewrite/dump the whole INI structure and thus lose
comments/orders, while others can't even write INI files.
<br><br>Config::IniFiles by far offers the most options and
features, like dealing with line continuation, case sensitivity,
default section, multiline/array, deltas, etc. So for now, despite
all of its quirks, this module is still hard to beat.
<br><br>There's another nice little INI module that can do
read/set/delete/unset (instead of just read/dump): Prima::IniFile,
but it is included in a totally unrelated distribution.

DateTime
Author: DROLSKY <https://metacpan.org/author/DROLSKY>
Amidst all the glowing reviews may I add a reminder that, as with
everything, there's a catch: runtime performance. On my PC, the
speed of creating a DateTime object is just around 6000/sec. If you
use DateTime intensively, it can quickly add up. <br><br>Imagine
serving a web page that fetches 50 rows from database, where for
convenience you convert each date column to a DateTime object, and
you have 120 requests/sec coming in... That's already 6000 objects
(an extra second!). <br><br>Which is unfortunate because DateTime is
so wonderful, convenient, correct, complete and all that. So one
approach you can use might be to delay converting to DateTime object
until necessary.
Date::Manip
Author: SBECK <https://metacpan.org/author/SBECK>
Wow, there are surely a lot of negative reviews ... <br><br>First of
all, Date::Manip has a long history. I used this module back in
2001-2002, IIRC. Back then it was *the* swiss army of date/time

Author: L<MIYAGAWA|https://metacpan.org/author/MIYAGAWA>
It's rather unfortunate that currently the choice for general purpose cross-platform filesystem notification modules on CPAN falls between this module (FNS) or File::ChangeNotify (F::CN). The other CPAN modules are either OS-/framework-specific.
<br><br>FNS has a simple API but is perhaps too simple for some uses, while F::CN uses Moose and has a big startup overhead.
<br><br>If you simply want to check from time to time whether a change has occured, you need to wrap the wait() method with alarm(). And I found on my Linux PC that I need a timeout of at least 3 seconds for this to work reliably.

=item L<Taint::Runtime>
Author: L<RHANDOM|https://metacpan.org/author/RHANDOM>
Nice idea. Perl should really have included something like this (analogous to warnings.pm for -w).
<br><br>However, for something as security-related as tainting, I personally think the interface is a bit too complex and not robust enough. There are too many pitfalls where one can fail to turn on tainting properly.
<br><br>* First, user must remember to import $TAINT, or doing '$TAINT = 1' has no effect. There's no error/warning for this mistake.
<br><br>* Then, if one also forgets to import taint_start or taint_start, then doing 'taint_start' or 'taint_env' (without parentheses) will do nothing. Also does not produce an error/warning except under strict mode.
<br><br>* One must remember to 'taint_env' I<after> 'taint_start'. There's no warning/error if one does the opposite.
<br><br>I'd rather have something like this:
<br><br>{
<br><br>use tainting;
<br><br>... code is running in taint mode ...
<br>
}
<br><br>use tainting;

=item L<autodie>
Author: L<TODDR|https://metacpan.org/author/TODDR>
I started using autodie in almost all of my applications a few months ago. It's somewhat of a mixed blessing. For existing applications, it can break things and making things less robust, solely because old code are not built with autodie in mind.
<br><br>But the best thing about it is that it's lexically scoped, so for sections of code that you're not sure about, just sprinkle 'no autodie' to get the old behaviour.
<br><br>It should be used on probably 95% of code out there. For the rest of the cases, where you need to report the status of each I/O operation, it's obviously more convenient to check $? instead of trapping exception everytime.
<br><br>+1 for getting it into core.

=item L<App::FileTools::BulkRename>
Disclaimer: I maintain a "competitor" module, App::perlmv. Apparently a lot of people, like me, likes to rename files using Perl. And the examples in the documentation are about renaming movie files too, something which I do a lot :)
<br><br>I applaud Stirling Westrup for taking a legacy script and improving it. May we have a lot of ideas to borrow from each other.
<br><br>This is an early release, there are quite a few things I find lacking. Most importantly, I suggest adding a test suite as soon as possible. The filesystem differences can be tricky, and CPAN Testers can help providing feedback.
<br><br>Keep up the good work.

This module has been developed for more than a decade and seen different maintainers over the years. The codebase is indeed showing these, with different capitalization and indentation styles, among other things.

Author: L<DROLSKY|https://metacpan.org/author/DROLSKY>
Amidst all the glowing reviews may I add a reminder that, as with everything, there's a catch: runtime performance. On my PC, the speed of creating a DateTime object is just around 6000/sec. If you use DateTime intensively, it can quickly add up.
<br><br>Imagine serving a web page that fetches 50 rows from database, where for convenience you convert each date column to a DateTime object, and you have 120 requests/sec coming in... That's already 6000 objects (an extra second!).
<br><br>Which is unfortunate because DateTime is so wonderful, convenient, correct, complete and all that. So one approach you can use might be to delay converting to DateTime object until necessary.
