Based upon some rough code by Nik Clayton, I've developed some slightly less rough code which can be used to easily develop Perl applications which need information about the ports collection. I'd appreciate it if people could read the code and its documentation, test the code, and comment on it. Please e-mail me if you would like a copy of the code.
