IRC::Toolkit::TS6 - Generate TS6 IDs

use IRC::Toolkit::TS6; my $idgen = ts6_id(); my $nextid = $idgen->next;

Lightweight array-type objects that can produce sequential TS6 IDs.
The exported ts6_id function will instance a new ID object. ts6_id optionally takes a start-point as a string (defaults to 'AAAAAA' similar to ratbox).
The object stringifies to the current ID.
The as_string method explicitly stringifies the current ID.
The next will increment the current ID and return the ID as a string.
If no more IDs are available, next will croak.
