Changes for version 9999.25 - 2018-10-29

  • The previous release contained nothing but a documentation update. That updated documentation errantly mentioned pseudo-files. Pseudo-files are perfectly fine to use with File::Slurp.
  • Add regression test for GLOB refs being slurped in. Thank you, James Keenan! https://github.com/perhunter/slurp/pull/17#issuecomment-437174592
  • Refactor read_file to use open and read rather than sysopen and sysread.
  • Add a bugwards compatible feature to keep track of the cursor when dealing with the DATA handle (https://github.com/perhunter/slurp/pull/17)
  • Fix a typo in the docs.
