My conclusions

• I wasted a lot of time putting in features I never used

  • Not only do I not use them, I forgot they existed

  • (At least I'm not the only one who does this)

• I waste a lot of time writing custom option-processing code

  • I hereby resolve to stop doing this

  • From now on, Getopt::Long or die

• Private tools don't have to be well-written to be useful and successful
