After too long a wait, I have updated File::Slurp with a long list of requested features and bug fixes. See the Changes file for the changes in the recent burst of 3 releases. Major changes include adding prepend_file() (this inserts data at the beginning of a file), the binmode option supports all the values of the binmode function, a rewritten and improved benchmark script and more synopsis examples.

In the near future, expect to see the subs edit_file() and edit_file_lines(). These support modifying a file in-place from inside your Perl program (similar to -pi on the command line).
