A quick introduction into the following useful modules (not all on CPAN yet):

* File::Operations (save_file, load_file, remove_dir and many more)
* Text::WikiText (this whole _abstract_ is written in *WikiText*)
* Data::NeatDump (neater than Data::Dumper)
* Data::NeatFormat (show scalars and lists nicely)
* Date::TimeFormat (there is more than one way to do it)
* Exception (C++/Java like syntax try/catch/throw with call stack)
* Parse::PerlConf (write configuration files using perl syntax)
* Parse::Copec64 (store any complex perl data using letters and digits only)
