  Description     : shell and powershell pipes, haskell keywords mixed with the awesomeness of perl

Perlude: If you're used to a unix shell, Windows Powershell or any
language coming with the notion of streams, perl could be frustrating
as functions like map and grep only works with arrays.

The goodness of it is that '|' is an on demand operator that can easily
compose actions on potentially very large amount of data in a very memory
and you can control the amount of consummed data in a friendly way.

Perlude gives a better '|' to Perl: as it works on scalars which can be
both strings (like unix shell), numbers or references (like powershell).

The package will be maintained under the umbrella of the Debian Perl Group.
