This is the bare bones of a Perl system to read the Japanese Post Office's file of postcodes. The main objective is to remove the bad formatting of the file and make the file into a useful format. This distribution is not in the CPAN format. Everything is done by a script which is in the directory "build". To make it, type "perl build/build.pl". The shebang in the build.pl won't work on your computer. You need to have Template installed to build the module files. The source files are in the "tmpl" directory.
