The Perl Toolchain Summit needs more sponsors. If your company depends on Perl, please support this very important event.
Usage: ack [OPTION]... PATTERN [FILES]

The following is the list of filetypes supported by ack.  You can
specify a file type with the --type=TYPE format, or the --TYPE
format.  For example, both --type=perl and --perl work.

Note that some extensions may appear in multiple types.  For example,
.pod files are both Perl and Parrot.
