@unnumberedsec NAME

MIME::ToolUtils - MIME-tools kit configuration and utilities

@unnumberedsec DESCRIPTION

A catch-all place for miscellaneous global information related to 
the configuration of the MIME-tools kit.

@unnumberedsec PUBLIC INTERFACE

@table @asis
@item debugging ONOFF
@emph{Class method.}
Turn debugging on (true) or off (false) for the entire MIME-tools
library.  Debug messages go to STDERR.

@item emulate_version [VERSION]
@emph{Class method.}
Emulate the behavior of a previous version of the MIME-tools kit (a.k.a
the MIME-parser kit in its version 1.x incarnations).
This will @emph{not} turn off warnings about deprecated usage (that would
impede progress), but it @emph{will} patch things like the @code{get()} method
of MIME::Head:

@example
MIME::ToolUtils->emulate_version(1.0)
@end example

The VERSION should be @'1@' or @'1.0@'.
