Description : Read/Write YAML files with as little code as possible
The YAML specification is huge. Like, really huge. It contains all the
functionality of XML, except with flexibility and choice, which makes it
easier to read, but with a full specification that is more complex than XML.
The pure-Perl implementation of YAML costs just over 4 megabytes of memory
to load. Just like with Windows .ini files (3 meg to load) and CSS
(3.5 meg to load) the situation is just asking for a YAML::Tiny module, an
incomplete but correct and usable subset of the functionality, in as little
code as possible.
