NAME PerlIO::via::Pipe - PerlIO layer to filter input through a Text::Pipe VERSION version 1.100860 SYNOPSIS use PerlIO::via::Pipe 'set_io_pipe'; use Text::Pipe 'PIPE'; my $pipe = PIPE('...') | PIPE('...'); open my $file, '<:via(Pipe)', 'foo.txt' or die "can't open foo.txt $!\n"; DESCRIPTION This package implements a PerlIO layer for reading files only. It exports, on request, a function "set_io_pipe" that you can use to set a Text::Pipe pipe. If you then use the "Pipe" layer as shown in the synopsis, the input gets filtered through the pipe.
