NAME
Perl::Critic::Freenode - Perl::Critic policies inspired by #perl on
freenode IRC
SYNOPSIS
$ perlcritic --theme freenode script.pl
$ perlcritic --theme freenode lib/
# .perlcriticrc
theme = freenode
severity = 1
DESCRIPTION
A set of Perl::Critic policies to enforce the practices generally
recommended by the denizens of #perl on Freenode IRC
<https://freenode.net/>. Because this policy "theme" is designed to be
used with zero configuration on the command line, some duplication will
occur if it is used in combination with core Perl::Critic policies.
AFFILIATION
This module has no functionality, but instead contains documentation
for this distribution and acts as a means of pulling other modules into
a bundle. All of the Policy modules contained herein will have an
"AFFILIATION" section announcing their participation in this grouping.
