Since absolutely no one could agree on the name, I went ahead and
uploaded the module as 'aliased'. Right now, 0.1 is available on the
CPAN, but .11 is on its way. The code is the same, but I accidentally
uploaded it before I had finished the docs.
The interface is slightly different, too.
# implicit alias:
use aliased 'Some::Long::Module::Name';
# explicit alias:
use aliased 'Some::Long::Module::Name' => 'Name';
# import lists require using explicit aliasing:
use aliased 'Some::Long::Module::Name'
=> 'Name, qw/foo bar baz/;
# and all of the above allow you to call class methods
# on the alias:
my $new_name = Name->new;
my $old_name = Name->search($id); # etc.
Thanks for all of the suggestions.
Cheers,
Ovid
