DigitalKitty has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hi all.

I was wondering if you (yes, you) might regale us with an example of how perl was used in combination with a pipe to creatively / cleverly solve a problem and / or construct an interesting project. Perhaps you work in a scientific laboratory and your program 'imports' research data in real-time or something similar. Perl has been described as a 'glue language'. What have you managed to synergistically connect?

Thanks,
-Katie
