Module Name

I'm designing a new module to include a little rewritting language on Perl. It will be based on Filter::Simple. First, I imagined : Text::Rewrite Then Inline::Rewrite The language makes you able to define rules, and join that rules on a function you can call from Perl code. The rules map
