> Other modules that deal with user-prompting are "type" fixated
> (asking the programmer: are you prompting for a floating point? a
> phone number? an international phone number?) This can often involve
> cryptic type codes when it comes time to interface with the module.
>
> Conversely, Term::Interact stays out of the business of building in
> types of data to ask the user for. Rather, it allows the programmer
> to specify one or more "checks" to apply against the user input. For
> example, if the programmer wants a phone number, he can pass (
> regex_check => qr/^\d{10}$/ ) to the module. Besides the built in
> checks (sql_check, list_check, regex_check, compare_check) the
> programmer can create custom checks if he wants to.
