NAME

POE::Component::Client::opentick::Util - Utility routines for the opentick POE Component.

SYNOPSIS

use POE::Component::Client::opentick::Util;

DESCRIPTION

This module contains utility routines used by the rest of POE::Component::Client::opentick, and thus is of no use to anything else.

It also rudely exports a bunch of junk into your namespace. This is desirable for the POE component, but why would you want that in your own module?

Don't fiddle with it. Ist easy schnappen der Springenwerk, blowen-fusen und poppen corken mit spitzensparken.
