# These 3 rules demand to add the s, m and x flag to *every* regexp. This is

# overkill and would be harmful for readability.

[-RegularExpressions::RequireLineBoundaryMatching]

# This rule says that builtin functions should not be called with parentheses

# e.g.: (taken from CPAN's documentation)

# open($handle, '>', $filename); #not ok

# open $handle, '>', $filename; #ok

# Applying such a rule would mean modifying a huge number of lines for a

# question of style.

[-CodeLayout::ProhibitParensWithBuiltins]

# This rule states that each system call should have its return value checked

# The problem is that it includes the print call. Checking every print call's

# return value would be harmful to the code readabilty.

# This configuration keeps all default function but print.

# This rules demands to add a dependancy for the Readonly module. This is not

[-ValuesAndExpressions::ProhibitConstantPragma]

# This rule is not really useful (rather a question of style) and produces many

# warnings among the code.
