NAME
       PDL::Perldl2::Plugin::NiceSlice - enable PDL NiceSlice syntax

DESCRIPTION
       This plugin enables one to use the PDL::NiceSlice syntax in an instance of "Devel::REPL" such as the new Perldl2 shell, "pdl2".	Without
       the plugin, array slicing looks like this:

	 pdl> use PDL;

	 pdl> $a = sequence(10);
	 $PDL1 = [0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9];

	 pdl> $a->slice("2:9:2");
	 $PDL1 = [2 4 6 8];

       After the NiceSlice plugin has been loaded, you can use this:

	 pdl> $a(2:9:2)
	 $PDL1 = [2 4 6 8];

CAVEATS
       "PDL::NiceSlice" uses Perl source preprocessing.  If you need 100% pure Perl compatibility, use the slice method instead.
