Something LIKE XPath, but not necessarily the same thing. Looks like they use a very similar interface (one search string as main input, returns matching nodes): * Data::Path (bingo! though it looks very simplistic... "*" (and multiple returns) aren't supported, "//" isn't supported, * ...) * Data::DPath (only partially implemented) * Data::Hierarchy (close, I guess, though uses regular expressions which is a tad weird) Somewhat different * Data::Match (seems too complicated) Has a search function, though it works on altogether different data: * Tree::XPathEngine (meant to be wholly independent (!!) ) - one issue is that perl nodes don't explicitely have the concept of "parent", so that has to be remembered * B::XPath
