Implements default import method for modules
The Exporter module implements an import method which allows a module to export functions and variables to its users' name spaces. Many modules use Exporter rather than implementing their own import method because Exporter provides a highly flexible interface, with an implementation optimized for the common case.

Find a minimum required version of perl for Perl code
Tools for working with directory and file names.
Represent a regular expression of some sort
The purpose of the PPIx-Regexp package is to parse regular expressions in a manner similar to the way the PPI package parses Perl. This class forms the root of the parse tree, playing a role similar to PPI::Document.
Common rules for searching for Perl things
I write a lot of things that muck with Perl files. And it always annoyed me that finding "perl files" requires a moderately complex File::Find::Rule pattern.
Simple, compact and correct param-checking functions
Params::Util provides a basic set of importable functions that makes checking parameters a hell of a lot easier. While they can be (and are) used in other contexts, the main point behind this module is that the functions both Do What You Mean, and Do The Right Thing, so they are most useful when you are getting params passed into your code from someone and/or somewhere else and you can't really trust the quality.
Version objects were added to Perl in 5.10. This module implements version objects for older version of Perl and provides the version object API for all versions of Perl. All previous releases before 0.74 are deprecated and should not be used due to incompatible API changes. Version 0.77 introduces the new 'parse' and 'declare' methods to standardize usage. You are strongly urged to set 0.77 as a minimum in your code, e.g. use version 0.77; # even for Perl v.5.10.0
This package is the shared library for perl.
Common Scalar and List utility subroutines
This package contains a selection of subroutines that people have expressed would be nice to have in the perl core, but the usage would not really be high enough to warrant the use of a keyword, and the size so small such that being individual extensions would be wasteful.
Parse, analyze and manipulate Perl (without perl).
The Carp routines are useful in your own modules because they act like die() or warn(), but with a message which is more likely to be useful to a user of your module. In the case of cluck, confess, and longmess that context is a summary of every call in the call-stack. For a shorter message you can use carp or croak which report the error as being from where your module was called. There is no guarantee that that is where the error was, but it is a good educated guess.
Extended processing of command line options
Module Getopt::Long implements an extended getopt function called GetOptions(). This function implements the POSIX standard for command line options, with GNU extensions, while still capable of handling the traditional one-letter options.
PPIx::Utils is a collection of utility functions for working with PPI documents. The functions are organized into submodules, and may be imported from the appropriate submodule or via this module.
A highly capable, feature-rich programming language
Perl 5 is a highly capable, feature-rich programming language with over 30 years of development. Perl 5 runs on over 100 platforms from portables to mainframes and is suitable for both rapid prototyping and large scale development projects.
File::Find::Rule is a friendlier interface to File::Find. It allows you to build rules which specify the desired files and directories.
