+perl-File-Save-Home (Place file safely under user home directory).
+
+File::Save::Home - Place file safely under user home directory.
+
+In the course of deploying an application on another user's system, you sometimes need to place
+a file in or underneath that user's home directory. Can you do so safely?
+
+This Perl extension provides several functions which try to determine whether you can, indeed,
+safely create directories and files underneath a user's home directory.
+
+Among other things, if you are placing a file in such a location only temporarily -- say, for
+testing purposes -- you can temporarily hide any already existing file with the same name and
+restore it to its original name and timestamps when you are done.
