=head1 NAME

App::Rad::Exclude - 'exclude' command extension for App::Rad

=head1 VERSION

Version 0.01

=head1 SYNOPSIS

'exclude' is an opt-in command for you App::Rad programs (myapp.pl):

    use App::Rad qw(exclude);  # add the 'exclude' command
    App::Rad->run();
    
    sub mycmd {
        print "hello, world\n";
    }
    
and now you can permanently remove a command from your application

    [user@host]$ myapp.pl exclude mycmd
    
Note that this B<*will*> edit the program's source code and try to remove the command (subroutine) automatically, so use it with extreme caution.
