Suggestions so far:
Iterator::Files
Iterator::FileList
Iterator::Lines
Iterator::FileListLines
Iterator::Slurpy
Iterator::Chunks
Iterator::FileChunks
Iterator::Content
Iterator::Stream
Since we're on the boundaries of file names and file contents
processing, I'd prefer Iterator::Files.
So, Iterator::Files is a general purpose 'give me a list of file names
and I'll give you all the records as if it were one big happy file'
iterator.
Iterator::Diamond is a derived iterator that uses @ARGV by default,
and interacts (more or less) with the globals ARGV, ARGVOUT, $ARGV and
$^I.
Note that Iterator::Diamond is still an iterator, and not a
transparent <> replacement.
