Description

Hello,

As someone who is very interested in this project, I wanted to know what would be the simplest way of going about running Perl in the browser. I see that in order to do this, we will likely have to work with the binary data that comes with each file. However, why not have the Perl script saved or "read" as a text file, then JavaScript receives the data and runs functions based on what was written (with Python as a medium)? It seems possible because the file can be interpreted line by line instead of doing a bunch of str.replace()s. We can use JavaScript's object to translate each Perl method while keeping note of brackets.

One reason for me suggesting this is because, looking through the scripts, this seems to be geared more towards the server-side of things, when users may have to test Perl on the client-side of their programs. Plus, it seems a lot simpler than having to go through an entire build process of procedures.

P.S.: It would really be helpful if you could include which files are useable and which files are to be worked on for/by users in the README.
