  Description     : Enable all of the features of Modern Perl with one command

Modern Perl programs use several modules to enable additional features
of Perl and of the CPAN. Instead of copying and pasting all of these
use lines, instead write only one:

    use Modern::Perl;

For now, this only enables the strict and warnings pragmas, as well as
all of the features available in Perl 5.10. It also enables C3 method
resolution order; see perldoc mro for an explanation. In the future, it
will include additional CPAN modules which have proven useful and stable.

See http://www.modernperlbooks.com/mt/2009/01/toward-a-modernperl.html
for more information, and http://www.modernperlbooks.com/ for further
discussion of Modern Perl and its implications.
