NAME

Slaughter::API::linux - Perl Automation Tool Helper Linux implementation

SYNOPSIS

This module is the one that gets loaded upon Linux systems, after the generic API implementation. It implements the platform-specific parts of our primitives.

We also attempt to load Slaughter::API::Local::linux, where site-specific primitives may be implemented. If the loading of this additional module fails we report no error/warning.
