You probably
don't use
tools like this

But a lot of
people DO
use tools
like this

These people
are getting
a bad first
impression
of Perl

Merged
within a
couple of
hours

Project
team very
appreciative

(Obviously
not Perl
programmers)

They would
really like
more help

https://github.com/devassistant/dap-perl/

These people are
treating Perl as a
first-class
language

But they
aren't
first-class Perl
programmers
