perl-TryCatch

first class try catch semantics for Perl, without source filters.

This module aims to provide a nicer syntax and method to catch errors in Perl, similar to what is found in other languages (such as Java, Python or C++). The standard method of using 'eval {}; if ($@) {}' is often prone to subtle bugs, primarily that its far too easy to stomp on the error in error handlers. And also eval/if isn't the nicest idiom.
