Description : Perl FFI interface to non-Perl libraries without XS
Platypus is an library for creating interfaces to machine code libraries
written in languages like C, C++, Fortran, Rust, Pascal - essentially
anything that gets compiled into machine code. It is much cleaner than
the traditional Perl way of writing XS modules - a trivial function call
from an external library can be written in less than five lines of pure
Perl code.
I intend to maintain this package within the Debian Perl group.
