NAME
Perl::Squish - Reduce Perl code to a few characters as possible
DESCRIPTION
Perl source code can often be quite large, with copious amounts of comments, inline POD documentation, and inline tests and other padding.
The actual code can represent as little as 10-20% of the content of well-written modules.
In situations where the Perl files need to be included, but do not need to be readable, this module will "squish" them. That is, it will strip out as many characters as it can from the source, while leaving the function of the code identical to the original.
METHODS
Perl::Squish is a fully PPI::Transform-compatible class. See that module's documentation for more information.
TO DO
To keep things simple for the talk, I really don't get into some of the more in depth stuff that could make things even smaller.
SUPPORT
