But it\*(Aqs written in only about 40% as many lines of code and with zero non\-core dependencies. .PP Its internal\-facing interface is closer to Exporter.pm, with configuration done through the \f(CW@EXPORT\fR, \f(CW@EXPORT_OK\fR and \f(CW%EXPORT_TAGS\fR package variables. .PP If you are trying to \fBwrite\fR a module that inherits from Exporter::Tiny, then look at: .IP \(bu 4 Exporter::Tiny::Manual::QuickStart .IP \(bu 4 Exporter::Tiny::Manual::Exporting .PP If you are trying to \fBuse\fR a module that inherits from Exporter::Tiny, then look at: .IP \(bu 4 Exporter::Tiny::Manual::Importing .SH BUGS .IX Header "BUGS" Please report any bugs to . .SH "SEE ALSO" .IX Header "SEE ALSO" . .PP Simplified interface to this module: Exporter::Shiny. .PP Less tiny version, with more features: Exporter::Almighty. .PP Other interesting exporters: Sub::Exporter, Exporter. .SH AUTHOR .IX Header "AUTHOR" Toby Inkster . .SH "COPYRIGHT AND LICENCE" .IX Header "COPYRIGHT AND LICENCE" This software is copyright (c) 2013\-2014, 2017, 2022\-2025 by Toby Inkster. .PP This is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the same terms as the Perl 5 programming language system itself. .SH "DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES" .IX Header "DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES" THIS PACKAGE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND WITHOUT ANY EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTIBILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
