=head1 ABOUT This archive contains the distribution Text-ASCIIPipe It contains a module for pushing/pulling text files to/from pipes (or whatever is behind a file handle), while processing them in a line-based manner. The separation of files is achieved through usage of ASCII control characters (which thusly shall not appear in your files by themselves). Two example scripts pack/unpack a set of files into/from a pipe. This would be a funny way to copy two files using them: asciipipe_in a b | asciipipe_out a.copy b.copy Of course, the interesting part is what happens between those two example scripts. =head1 INSTALLATION To install this module, run the following commands: perl Build.PL ./Build ./Build test ./Build install =head 1 SUPPORT AND DOCUMENTATION After installing, you can find documentation for this module with the perldoc command. perldoc Text::ASCIIPipe =head1 LICENSE AND COPYRIGHT Copyright (C) 2011-2012 Thomas Orgis This is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the same terms as the Perl 5 programming language system itself.
