NAME Acme::POE::Acronym::Generator - Generate random POE acronyms. VERSION version 1.20 SYNOPSIS use strict; use warnings; use Acme::POE::Acronym::Generator; my $poegen = Acme::POE::Acronym::Generator->new(); for ( 1 .. 10 ) { my $acronym = $poegen->generate(); print $acronym, "\n"; } DESCRIPTION What does POE stand for?" is a common question, and people have expanded the acronym in several ways. Acme::POE::Acronym::Generator produces randomly generated expansions of the POE acronym ( or at your option any other arbitary word ). CONSTRUCTOR "new" Takes three optional parameters: 'dict', the path to the words file to use, default is /usr/share/dict/words; 'wordlist', an arrayref consisting of words to use, this overrides the use of dict file; 'key', provide a word to make an acronym for instead of POE; If the dict file doesn't exist it will use a very small subset of words to generate responses. Returns a shiny Acme::POE::Acronym::Generator object. METHODS "generate" Takes no parameters. In a scalar context, returns a string containing the acronym. In a list context, returns the individual words of the acronym as a list. SEE ALSO AUTHOR Chris Williams COPYRIGHT AND LICENSE This software is copyright (c) 2013 by Chris Williams.
