NAME

6       PPI::Tester - A wxPerl-based interactive PPI debugger/tester
7

DESCRIPTION

9       This package implements a wxWindows desktop application which provides
10       the ability to interactively test the PPI perl parser.
11
12       The "PPI::Tester" module implements the application, but is itself of
13       no use to the user. The launcher for the application 'ppitester' is
14       installed with this module, and can be launched by simply typing the
15       following from the command line.
16
17         ppitester
18
19       When launched, the application consists of two vertical panels. The
20       left panel is where you should type in your code sample. As the left
21       hand panel is changed, a PPI::Dumper output is continuously updated in
22       the right hand panel.
23
24       There is a toolbar at the top of the application with two icon buttons,
25       currently without icons. The first toolbar button clears the panels,
26       the second is a placeholder for loading in code from a file, and is not
27       yet implemented. ( It's early days yet for this application ).
28

TO DO

30       - There are no icons on the toolbar buttons
31
32       - An option is needed to save both the left and right panels into
33         a matching pair of files, compatible with the lexer testing script.
