I second Dave's request.  Also, how does one go about *getting*
the AT&T Toolchest?

Does anyone have any experience with software quality analyzers
for object-oriented systems?  For perl?  I am referring to source
code analyzers that measure complexity, reliability, etc.  Somehow,
I don't think PC-Metric fits the object-oriented paradigm, and
I don't think they have a perl version ...
