How does it work? (2/2)

Data::Locations are implemented so that they behave as if they were an integral part of the Perl language:

• you can send data to Data::Locations with
  "print" like to any other filehandle
• you can read from Data::Locations with the
  "<>" operator as usual
• Data::Locations go out of scope as any other
  Perl object
• Data::Locations are fully suited for binary data
• Data::Locations can be automatically dumped to
  a file, a pipe, a command etc. when program ends
