WHAT IS Tie::Hash::FixedKeys?

Tie::Hash::FixedKeys is a Perl module which extends the functionality of Perl
hashes so that they can have a fixed set of keys.


HOW DO I INSTALL IT?

Tie::Hash::FixedKeys uses the standard Perl module architecture and can 
therefore be installed using the standard Perl method which, in brief, goes 
something like this: 

   gzip -cd Tie-Hash-FixedKeys-X.XX.tar.gz | tar xvf -
   cd Tie-Hash-FixedKeys-X.XX
   perl Makefile.PL
   make
   make test
   make install

Where X.XX is the version number of the module which you are installing.

If this doesn't work for you then creating a directory called Tie/Hash 
somewhere in your Perl library path (@INC) and copying the FixedKeys.pm file 
into this directory should also do the trick.


WHERE IS THE DODUMENTATION?

All of the documentation is currently in POD format in the FixedKeys.pm file. 
If you install the module using the standard method you should be able to 
read it by typing

   perldoc Tie::Hash::FixedKeys

at a command prompt.


LATEST VERSION

The latest version of this module will always be available from CPAN.
