NAME
Text::Pluralize - simple pluralization routine
DESCRIPTION
Text::Pluralize provides a lightweight routine to produce the proper form,
singular or plural, of a word or phrase. Its intended purpose is to produce
messages for the user, whether error messages or informational messages,
without the awkward "1 file(s) copied" appearance.
