So as I meditate on the glories that is known as Perl, I was given a script by a coworker to study and learn various methods on how to do certain things within Perl that I had been struggling to figure out was possible.

I began to read through this script of over 1700 lines of code, and none of it is in a easy readable format at all. The code itself works, but it is an absolute disaster, it looks like a computer tornado came through and just messed everything up in terms of readability, yet functionality was unaffected.

I lasted about 5 minutes before I couldn't read it without hurting my eyes, and then I remembered, from perusing the monastery the glories of CPAN, and one of its most used modules here which is known as perltidy. So I run it and thank the heavens, it is not only readable now, but far more organized, and many young puppies are safe from the wrath of the Perl overlords.

I just wanted to come praise the glories that is CPAN, and specifically perltidy, it is truly a Godsend.
