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.

These are low-level functions to extract and use capabilities from a terminal capability (termcap) database.
Tools for working with directory and file names.
This package is the shared library for perl.
Print a usage message from embedded pod documentation
Pod2usage will print a usage message for the invoking script (using its embedded pod documentation) and then exit the script with the desired exit status. The usage message printed may have any one of three levels of "verboseness": If the verbose level is 0, then only a synopsis is printed. If the verbose level is 1, then the synopsis is printed along with a description (if present) of the command line options and arguments. If the verbose level is 2, then the entire manual page is printed.
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.
The Encode module provides the interface between Perl strings and the rest of the system. Perl strings are sequences of characters.
Pod::Simple is a Perl library for parsing text in the Pod ("plain old documentation") markup language that is typically used for writing documentation for Perl and for Perl modules. The Pod format is explained in perlpod; the most common formatter is called perldoc.
Color screen output using ANSI escape sequences
This Perl module is a simple and convenient interface to the ANSI terminal escape sequences for color (from ECMA-48, also included in ISO 6429). The color sequences are provided in two forms, either as constants for each color or via a function that takes the names of colors and returns the appropriate escape codes or wraps them around the provided text. The non-color text style codes from ANSI X3.64 (bold, dark, underline, and reverse, for example), which were also included in ECMA-48 and ISO 6429, are also supported. Also supported are the extended colors used for sixteen-color and 256-color emulators.
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.
Format POD source into various output formats
podlators contains Pod::Man and Pod::Text modules which convert POD input to *roff source output, suitable for man pages, or plain text. It also includes several subclasses of Pod::Text for formatted output to terminals with various capabilities. It is the source package for the Pod::Man and Pod::Text modules included with Perl.
