Convert to use IPC::Run in effort to make faster.
By using IPC::Run, the bean-query process need not be restarted every
time.  This shows significant speed improvement.

Note that now, the process will not notice when the Beancount files
change underneath it, or when they query format changes.  Additional
code will be needed to support this.

Beancount Tools Written in Perl

These are various tools written in Perl to interact with Beancount project.

bean-query-goofy-daemon.plx

This daemon uses Perl's IPC::Shareable library to take queries as a daemon for Beancount's bean-query. Note that this daemon is not particularly secure, as it has the same security flaws inherent in IPC::Shareable and use of named pipes (as it uses mkfifo from Perl's POSIX library underneath.

bean-query-daemon-lib.pl

This file defines three functions to use in client scripts that want to talk to bean-query-goofy-daemon.plx.

It's not an actual Perl library; just use require in Perl to load it.
