package Env;
=head1 NAME
Env - perl module that imports environment variables
=head1 SYNOPSIS
use Env;
use Env qw(PATH HOME TERM);
=head1 DESCRIPTION
Perl maintains environment variables in a pseudo-hash named %ENV. For
when this access method is inconvenient, the Perl module C<Env> allows
environment variables to be treated as simple variables.
The Env::import() function ties environment variables with suitable
names to global Perl variables with the same names. By default it
does so with all existing environment variables (C<keys %ENV>). If
the import function receives arguments, it takes them to be a list of
environment variables to tie; it's okay if they don't yet exist.
After an environment variable is tied, merely use it like a normal variable.
You may access its value
@path = split(/:/, $PATH);
or modify it
$PATH .= ":.";
however you'd like.
To remove a tied environment variable from
the environment, assign it the undefined value
undef $PATH;
