This simple module serves one purpose - to provide a simple means to read (or
slurp) an entire file into memory for processing. This module allows the
replacement of the prototypical foreach- or while- loops used for opening
and reading of files with single-line constructs.
Of note with this module is that the magic of the @ARGV variable and the
input record separator, $/, are used to facilitate the reading of entire
files into either an array or scalar using minimal code.
Change the way Perl modules are installed, update the default Perl to 5.18.
Before, we had:
site_perl : lib/perl5/site_perl/5.18
site_perl/perl_arch : lib/perl5/site_perl/5.18/mach
perl_man3 : lib/perl5/5.18/man/man3
Now we have:
site_perl : lib/perl5/site_perl
site_arch : lib/perl5/site_perl/mach/5.18
perl_man3 : lib/perl5/site_perl/man/man3
Modules without any .so will be installed at the same place regardless of the
