Various Tools for interacting with Beancount commands and files in the Perl language

Part of the SELECT statement that was entered gets repeated in the output. It's some sort of timing issue with IPC::Run or the IO::Pty because it's often not the entire input but only part of it. It does however appear that there is usually a blank line right before output, and in text mode, we can also search for the line of -'s as a backup to assure we get the proper output and don't send the garbled input back as the output across the named pipe. This is a bit of a hacky solution and likely error-prone. |

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.
