Perl Best Practices: Code Layout: Vertical Alignment
I came across this chapter a while ago, and I enjoyed the argumentation quite a lot. I think the Vertical Alignment idea applies to all sorts of code, not just Perl code.
I am personally a follower of the Vertical Alignment sect, although I think, that should be the main stream.
“The other day” I came across code not following the Vertical Aligment idea, and I was rather sad (“in a professional sense”). But I am rather aware of the different streams resp. sects, and of course, this is not meant as an insult but rather just a note.

Welcome to the Unix Reconstruction Project.
Our goal is quite simply to reimplement the classic Unix command set in pure Perl, and to have as much fun as we can doing so.I would really love to have a few more utilities in that collection:
- “seq” [link]
- …
Yes, the GNU coreutils do certain things much, much better, but still … – yet: you can install PPT privately and with a rather small footprint, which makes them rather suitable in certain corporate environments.Just a few goodies:Parts of the collection with a separate life outside the collection:A few utilities, that are not formally a part of this collection:
- metacpan.org/module/ack – grep-like text finder – more or less like tcgrep (see above!)
