One of the many (1001?) reasons to love Perl is CPAN, the
Comprehensive Perl Archive Network. When Perl people have to work
in other programming languages, they will immediately miss it.
This is where the recently launched JavaScript Archive

Perlish for other communities to really embrace it, and of course, the
project is young and the modules still few, but I for one like the idea,
switched out the JavaScript on the T-Files in favour of JSAN modules
(let me know if you have any problems with the new style-switching code), and
happily add a new button to the collection:
