Text::Autoformat (intelligent automatic reformatting of plaintext),
Switch (Perl’s missing case statement), NEXT (resumptive method dispatch),
Filter::Simple (Perl-based source code manipulation), Quantum::Superpositions
(auto-parallelization of serial code using a quantum mechanical metaphor), and
Lingua::Romana::Perligata (programming in Latin).
