How can I slurp STDIN in Perl?

Question

I piping the output of several scripts. One of these scripts outputs an entire HTML page that gets processed by my perl script. I want to be able to pull the whole 58K of text

Answer 1

I can't let this opportunity to say how much I love IO::All pass without saying:

♥ ♥ __ "I really like IO::All ... a lot" __ ♥ ♥

Variation on the POD SYNOPSIS:

use IO::All;
my $contents < io('-') ;
print "\n printing your IO: \n $contents \n with IO::All goodness ..." ;

Warning: IO::All may begin replacing everything else you know about IO in perl with its own insidious goodness.
