Several variables

Of course the variables to declare strongly depend on how you are going to construct your converter. For the following sections, we need an array to store stream data in, and a hash to mirror user options.

    # declare variables
  
    my (
        @streamData,                # PerlPoint stream;
        %options,                   # option hash;
       );
