VERSION

Version 4.0.0

SYNOPSIS

A collection of basic file manipulation tools.

As of version 4.0.0, File::Butler is built around Moose.

use File::Butler;

my $fb = File::Butler->new( 'filename' => 'myfile.txt' );
my $contents = $fb->read();
my $retval = $fb->append( "Text to be appended." );
my $retval = $fb->prepend( "Text to be prepended to the beginning of the file." );

Please note that "filename" is a required element during invocation. In cases where file contents are to be returned, contents are returned either as an array or an array reference, depending upon how the method is called.
