Devel::Peek allows you to see (and modify) Perl's internal
representation of a variable:
levanti@meta:~$ perl -le 'use Devel::Peek qw(Dump); $foo = 10; \
Dump $foo; $foo .= "a"; Dump $foo;'
SV = IV(0x80d4160) at 0x80d2048
REFCNT = 1
FLAGS = (IOK,pIOK)
IV = 10
SV = PVIV(0x80d52c8) at 0x80d2048
REFCNT = 1
FLAGS = (POK,pPOK)
IV = 10
PV = 0x80d7430 "10a"\0
CUR = 3
LEN = 4
Devel::RegExp is used to examine a regular expression; unfortunately,
I can't get it to compile on my machine. I just read about it in
Advanced Perl Programming.
But the Devel::Peek package seems to work. I would definitely
appreciate comments, as it's my first Debian package :)
