Here's a blub on PDL::Util. Note that I am considering removing
PDL::IO::Export2D entirely, so perhaps it ought not to be mentioned at
all.

L<PDL::Util> provides convenient utility functions and methods for use
with PDL. Much like its inspiration L<List::MoreUtils>, it is intended
to provide some trivial but commonly needed functionality on lists
which is not going to go into the PDL core. The author intends this to
be a community module; if you find yourself often using a certain
hand-rolled PDL method or function, consider submitting it for
inclusion at L<http://github.com/jberger/PDL-Util>. The community will
benefit and you can stop repeating yourself!

Cheers,
Joel Berger
