        # Create the provider
        my $provider = Template::Provider::FromDATA->new( {
            CLASSES => __PACKAGE__
        } );
    
        # Add the provider to the config
        my $template = Template->new( {
            # ...
            LOAD_TEMPLATES => [ $provider ]
        } );

        # Render a template
        $template->process( 'mytemplate', { bar => 'Bar' } );

        __DATA__

        Baz, [% qux %]?

DESCRIPTION
    This module allows you to store your templates inline with your code in
    the "__DATA__" section. It will search any number of classes specified.

CAVEAT
    If you have two templates with the same name, this module will not
    understand the difference, it will simply return the first one found. If
    you wish, you can specify a fully qualified template name by prefixing
    the template with the module name (using "-" instead of "::" as a
    namespace separator), adding a "/" to separate the module name from the
    template name.

        $template->process( 'My-Templates/mytemplate', { bar => 'Bar' } );

INSTALLATION
        perl Makefile.PL
        make
        make test
        make install

METHODS
  new( \%OPTIONS )
    Create a new instance of the provider. You can specify a list of classes
    to be searched for templates via the "CLASSES" option. By omitting this
    option it will search "main".

        # defaults to 'main'
        $provider = Template::Provider::FromDATA->new;
    
        # look for templates in 'Foo'
        $provider = Template::Provider::FromDATA->new( {
            CLASSES => 'Foo'
        } );

        # look for templates in 'Foo::Bar' and 'Foo::Baz'
        $provider = Template::Provider::FromDATA->new( {
            CLASSES => [ 'Foo::Bar', 'Foo::Baz' ]
        } );

    By default, template data is lazy-loaded as they it is requested. If you
    wish to load up all template data upon initializtion, you can use the
    "PRELOAD" option.

        $provider = Template::Provider::FromDATA->new( {
            PRELOAD => 1
        } );

  _init( \%OPTIONS )
    A subclassed method to handle the options passed to "new()".

  fetch( $name )
    This is a subclassed method that will load a template via "_fetch()" if
    a non-reference argument is passed.

  _load( $name )
    Loads the template via the "get_file()" sub and sets some cache
    information.

  get_file( $class, $template )
    This method searches through $class for a template named $template.
    Returns the contents on success, undef on failure.

    This function was mostly borrowed from Catalyst::Helper's "get_file"
    function.

ACCESSORS
  classes
    An arrayref of the class names containing our templates.

  cache
    A hashref of file and template data.
