    print "[$key]\n$val\n\n" while (($key, $val) = splice(@out, 0, 2));

DESCRIPTION

Convert::GeekCode converts and generates Geek Code sequences (cf. http://geekcode.com/). It supports different langugage codes and user-customizable codesets.

Since version 0.5, this module uses YAML to represent the geek code tables, for greater readability and ease of deserialization. Please refer to http://www.yaml.org/ for more related information.

The geekgen and geekdec utilities are installed by default, and may be used to generate / decode geek code blocks, respectively.
