Texinfo is a documentation system that uses a single source file to produce both online information and printed output. Instead of writing different documents for online presentation and another for printed work, you need have only one document. Texinfo can produce output in plain ASCII, HTML, its own hypertext format called Info, and (using TeX) DVI format. It includes the makeinfo program.

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.
Tools for working with directory and file names.
This package is the shared library for perl.
The Storable extension brings persistence to your data. You may recursively store to disk any data structure, no matter how complex and circular it is, provided it contains only SCALAR, ARRAY, HASH (possibly tied) and references (possibly blessed) to those items.
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.
Text-Unidecode -- plain ASCII transliterations of Unicode text
It often happens that you have non-Roman text data in Unicode, but you can't display it-- usually because you're trying to show it to a user via an application that doesn't support Unicode, or because the fonts you need aren't accessible. You could represent the Unicode characters as "???????" or "\15BA\15A0\1610...", but that's nearly useless to the user who actually wants to read what the text says. What Text::Unidecode provides is a function, unidecode(...) that takes Unicode data and tries to represent it in US-ASCII characters (i.e., the universally displayable characters between 0x00 and 0x7F). The representation is almost always an attempt at transliteration-- i.e., conveying, in Roman letters, the pronunciation expressed by the text in some other writing system. (See the example in the synopsis.)
TTY-based reader of the GNU texinfo documentation
This package provides a standalone TTY-based browser program for viewing texinfo files.
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.
This module provide user-defined Unicode properties that deal with width status of East Asian characters, as specified in <http://www.unicode.org/unicode/reports/tr11/>.
Internationalization library for Perl, high-level interface to Uniforum Message Translation
The package libintl-perl is an internationalization library for Perl that aims to be compatible with the Uniforum message translations system as implemented for example in GNU gettext.
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.
This module provides functions to encode and decode strings into and from the base64 encoding specified in RFC 2045 - MIME (Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions). The base64 encoding is designed to represent arbitrary sequences of octets in a form that need not be humanly readable. A 65-character subset ([A-Za-z0-9+/=]) of US-ASCII is used, enabling 6 bits to be represented per printable character.
Stringified perl data structures, suitable for both printing and eval
Given a list of scalars or reference variables, writes out their contents in perl syntax. The references can also be objects. The content of each variable is output in a single Perl statement. Handles self-referential structures correctly. The return value can be evaled to get back an identical copy of the original reference structure. (Please do consider the security implications of eval'ing code from untrusted sources!)
This module provides a convenient way to create directories of arbitrary depth and to delete an entire directory subtree from the filesystem.
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.
This package takes Unicode data of arbitrary forms and canonicalizes it to a standard representation(Unicode Standard Annex #15).
