=head1 NAME

Net::Amazon::S3::Tools - command line tools for Amazon S3

=head1 SYNOPSIS

  s3acl [options] [[bucket|bucket/key] ...]
  s3ls [options]
  s3ls [options] [ bucket/item ... ]
  s3get [options] [ bucket/item ... ]
  s3put [options] [ bucket/item ... ]
  s3mkbucket [options] [ bucket ... ]
  s3rmbucket [options] [ bucket ... ]

=head1 OPTIONS

Each of the tools have their own specific command line options,
but the also all share some common command line options,
which are described here.

=item B<--help>

Print a brief help message and exits.

=item B<--man>

Prints the manual page and exits.

=item B<--verbose>

Output what is being done as it is done.

=item B<--access-key> and B<--secret-key>

Specify the "AWS Access Key Identifiers" for the AWS account.
B<--access-key> is the "Access Key ID", and B<--secret-key> is
the "Secret Access Key".  These are effectively the "username" and
"password" to the AWS account, and should be kept confidential.

The access keys MUST be specified, either via these command line
parameters, or via the B<AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID> and
B<AWS_ACCESS_KEY_SECRET> environment variables.

Specifying them on the command line overrides the environment
variables.

=item B<--secure>

Uses SSL/TLS HTTPS to communicate with the AWS service, instead of
HTTP.

=head1 DESCRIPTION

These S3 command line tools allow you to manipulate and populate an S3
account.  Refer to the documentation (pod and man) for each of the
tools.

This L<Net::Amazon::S3::Tools> module is mostly just a stub, to hoist
the bundling and installation of the executable scripts that make up
the actual tools.

=head1 BUGS

Report bugs to Mark Atwood L<mark@fallenpegasus.com>.

Occasionally the S3 service will randomly fail for no externally
apparent reason.  When that happens, these tools should retry, with a
delay and a backoff.

Access to the S3 service can be authenticated with a X.509
certificate, instead of via the "AWS Access Key Identifiers".
These tools should support that.

It might be useful to be able to specify the "AWS Access Key Identifiers"
in the user's C<~/.netrc> file.
These tools should support that.

Errors and warnings are very "Perl-ish", and can be confusing.
