Description: Perl module to generate more sophisticated lists than just $a..$b
The List::Maker module hijacks Perl's built-in file globbing syntax (< *.pl >
and glob '*.pl') and retargets it at list creation.
.
The rationale is simple: most people rarely if ever glob a set of files, but
they have to create lists in almost every program they write. So the list
construction syntax should be easier than the filename expansion syntax.
.
Alternatively, you can load the module with an explicit name, and it creates
a subroutine of that name that builds the same kinds of lists for you
(leaving the globbing mechanism unaltered).
