Some of us may not want to install perl or figure out how to use cpan. If this project is not useful to you, then don't comment. Please don't comment just for being sarcastic

This is the most useful comment of all, because it summarizes the software in eleven words (although it left out "for Ruby".)

Doesn't look like that supports other HTTP methods (a CTRL-F for 'delete' shows nothing).

Yes, all these HTTP methods are supported: GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, HEAD, OPTIONS, TRACE.

The command aliases are set up to reflect frequency of use. GET, POST, PUT, and DELETE can be invoked using those words as commands, but HEAD, OPTIONS, and TRACE must be specified as 'http-head', 'http-options', and 'http-trace', respectively.

+1 on the Perl love.
