SYNOPSIS
Toppackage Template::Plugin::LWPSimple; use base qw(Template::Plugin::Procedural); use LWP::Simple; # exports 'get' 1;
[% USE LWPSimple %]
[% LWPSimple.get("http://www.tt2.org/") %]
              DESCRIPTION
Top
                      Template::Plugin::Procedural is a base class for Template
                      Toolkit plugins that causes defined subroutines to be called directly
                      rather than as a method. Essentially this means that subroutines will not
                      receive the class name or object as its first argument.
                    
This is most useful when creating plugins for modules that normally work by exporting subroutines that do not expect such additional arguments.
                      Despite the fact that subroutines will not be called in an OO manner,
                      inheritance still function as normal. A class that uses
                      Template::Plugin::Procedural can be subclassed and both
                      subroutines defined in the subclass and subroutines defined in the
                      original class will be available to the Template Toolkit and will be
                      called without the class/object argument.
