I have this homenode [perlmonks.org] of little consequence on Perl Monks [perlmonks.org] that you probably have no interest in whatsoever.
I also have some modules [cpan.org] on CPAN [cpan.org] some of which are marginally [cpan.org] more [cpan.org] useful [cpan.org] than others.
Just say no to Adobe
In my previous journal entry, I was both angry and in despair (summary: I needed a Windows printer driver that produced PDF files, and Adobe's solution was a moving target). Thanks to gizmo_mathboy I found new hope, and thanks to PDFCreator I can ditch Adobe and get on to the next bug in my project.
I did have to use the latest PDFCreator release candidate, 0.8.1 RC10, since program options were moved to the Windows registry (so I could easily set AutoSave options from my program, yay!). And the ancient development environment I'm using only likes to print to 'LPTx:' ports, but PDFCreator installs itself on a port named 'PDFCreator:', so I had to muck with creating a fake printer on LPT2, and run 'net use LPT2 \\localsystemname\PDFCreator' so that Windows would think my "printer" was on LPT2 (I already have a fake printer on LPT1). And I'm also using pdftk to attach files to the generated PDF files. Hurray for open source!
an endless discussion thread about what features to include.

PDFTk looks rather cool.
So, what's your next bug?
