Some tasks are too menial for a dedicated script but still too cumbersome even with the many neat one-liner options of "perl -E". This small script fills the gap: various one-letter commands & magic variables (with meaningful aliases too) and more nifty loop options take Perl programming to the command line. Fully imports List::Util. With no program on the command line, starts a pl Shell. How to "e(cho)" values, including from "@A(RGV)", with single "$q(uote)" & double "$Q(uote)". Same for hard-to-print values: $  pl  'e  "${q}Perl$q",  "$Q@A$Q"'  one-liner $  pl  'e  \"Perl",  \@A,  undef'  one-liner Loop over args, printing each with line ending.  ...

...Rules are organized into policies with configurable actions—block, log, or allow—and can leverage shared dictionaries for counters, rate limits, and caching decisions. Because it runs inside the NGINX event loop, it scales with the web tier and avoids the latency of external proxies. Operators can extend it with custom Lua code, integrate threat feeds, or adapt it to application-specific quirks without recompiling modules. The result is a flexible, scriptable WAF that pairs the performance of NGINX with the expressiveness of Lua for nuanced HTTP defense.

Perf::Stopwatch is a Perl Module that can be quickly added and removed from any existing code to debug/optimize portions of code. Example of use are: database calls, loop efficiency, total script time, and webpage timeouts.
