=head1 NAME

Die::Alive - Make die() to not exit the Perl interpreter, but keep the die() behavior inside eval.

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This module when loaded will make the function die() to not exit the Perl interpreter,
but it will keep the die() behavior inside eval, making it to go out of an eval block.

=head1 USAGE

  use Die::Alive ;

  die("This die() won't exit!") ;
  print "And here we continue the app...\n" ;
  
  eval {
    die("Calling die() inside eval!");
    print "And this print won't be executed.\n" ;
  } ;
  
  print "ERROR: $@\n" ;
