PerlySense does Moose

I just uploaded PerlySense 0.0165 to PAUSE.

The new feature is a syntax plugin for Moose. It understands "has" (the basics), "extends", and "with".

So now I can finally visualize and navigate inheritance hierarchies in the code base at work again. That's been sorely missing for a while. Quite annoying once you've gotten used to it.

The plugin isn't a separate distribution yet. I couldn't be bothered to go through the chore of setting up a new one, so I just made it part of core PerlySense and made a new release. That will change of course, but not today.

The plugin system is in beta anyway, there are a few things that need cleaning up before other people can write plugins and expect the interface to not change. But if there is interest, nagging will probably hasten that process :)
