SDL_Perl is a perl interface to the Simple DirectMedia Library. It is
composed of a both a XS wrapper to the SDL libraries and a series of
Perl modules that export SDL functionality in an object-oriented
fashion.

One of the biggest benefits of using SDL is that it allows portable
media applications to be written without having to be concerned with
specific implmentations of media libraries for each target platform.
Bringing Perl into the picture takes the portability one step further,
allowing media-rich applications to be written in a high-level
language that can be targeted to a number of platforms. While
programming using SDL requires knowledge of C and access to a C
compiler, using SDL_perl does not. This greatly decreases the amount
of time it takes to get something up on the screen and working.
