Kite::PScript::Defs 0.4

Kite::PScript::Defs is a Perl module that contains useful PostScript definitions for kite layout et al.

SYNOPSIS

use Kite::PScript::Defs;

# access package variables directly
print $Kite::PScript::Defs::mm;

# or as package subs
print Kite::PScript::Defs::mm();

# or as class methods
print Kite::PScript::Defs->mm();

# here's a convenient shorthand
my $ps = 'Kite::PScript::Defs';
print $ps->mm;

# import various definitions
use Kite::PScript::Defs qw( mm clip );
print mm, clip;

# or specify :all tag to import all definitions as subs
use Kite::PScsript::Defs qw( :all );
print mm, reg, clip, pathtext;

Module defining a number of useful PostScript definitions for kite part layout and other similar tasks.

The definitions are provided as package variables which can be accessed directly:

use Kite::PScript::Defs;

print $Kite::PScript::Defs::mm;

An AUTOLOAD method is provided which translates any subroutine or method calls into accesses to the appropriate variable. Thus, the PostScript definition specified in the $mm package variable can be accessed by calling either of:

Kite::PScript::mm();
Kite::PScript->mm();

The latter use allows a 'factory' variable to be defined to make this less tedious.

my $ps = 'Kite::PScript::Defs';
print $ps->mm, $ps->clip, $ps->pathtext;

You can specify import parameters when loading the module. Any definitions specified will be imported as subroutines into the caller's namespace.

use Kite::PScript::Defs qw( mm clip );
print mm, clip;

The ':all' import tag can be specified to import all the PoscScript definitions.

use Kite::PScript::Defs qw( :all );
print mm, clip, pathtext;
