Title: IO::All to Larry Wall!

Description:
IO::All combines all of the best Perl IO modules into a single nifty object
oriented interface to greatly simplify your everyday Perl IO idioms. It
exports a single function called 'io', which returns a new IO::All object.
And that object can do it all!

The IO::All object is a proxy for IO::File, IO::Dir, IO::Socket, Tie::File,
File::Spec, File::Path, File::MimeInfo and File::ReadBackwards; as well as
all the DBM and MLDBM modules. You can use most of the methods found in
these classes and in IO::Handle (which they inherit from). IO::All adds
dozens of other helpful idiomatic methods including file stat and
manipulation functions.

IO::All is pluggable, and modules like the IO::All::LWP manpage and the
IO::All::Mailto manpage add even more functionality. Optionally, every
IO::All object can be tied to itself. This means that you can use most perl
IO builtins on it: readline, <>, getc, print, printf, syswrite, sysread,
close.

The distinguishing magic of IO::All is that it will automatically open (and
close) files, directories, sockets and other IO things for you. You never
need to specify the mode ('<', '>>', etc), since it is determined by the
usage context. That means you can replace this:

open STUFF, '<', './mystuff'
or die "Can't open './mystuff' for input:\n$!";
local $/;
my $stuff = <STUFF>;
close STUFF;

with this:

my $stuff < io './mystuff';

And that is a *good thing*!
