NAME
====

P5readlink - Implement Perl 5's readlink() built-in

SYNOPSIS
========

    use P5readlink;

    say readlink("foobar"); # string if symlink, Nil if not

    with "foobar" {
        say readlink; # string if symlink, Nil if not
    }

DESCRIPTION
===========

This module tries to mimic the behaviour of the `readlink` of Perl 5 as closely as possible.

PORTING CAVEATS
