3. Information about the perl-IO-String.noarch package on Amazon Linux 2

Loaded plugins: ovl, priorities
Available Packages
Name : perl-IO-String
Arch : noarch
Version : 1.08
Release : 19.amzn2
Size : 16 k
Repo : amzn2-core/2/x86_64
Summary : Emulate file interface for in-core strings
URL : http://search.cpan.org/dist/IO-String/
License : GPL+ or Artistic
Description : The "IO::String" module provides the "IO::File" interface for
: in-core strings. An "IO::String" object can be attached to a
: string, and makes it possible to use the normal file operations
: for reading or writing data, as well as for seeking to various
: locations of the string. This is useful when you want to use a
: library module that only provides an interface to file handles on
: data that you have in a string variable.
:
: Note that perl-5.8 and better has built-in support for "in memory"
: files, which are set up by passing a reference instead of a
: filename to the open() call. The reason for using this module is
: that it makes the code backwards compatible with older versions of
: Perl.
