              The purpose of this module is to provide user with current list of
              available top level domain names including new ICANN additions and ccTLDs
              Currently TLD definitions have been acquired from the following sources:

              http://www.icann.org/tlds/
              http://www.dnso.org/constituency/gtld/gtld.html
              http://www.iana.org/cctld/cctld-whois.htm

              Each public function/method is described here.
              These are how you should interact with this module.

      _"_t_l_d_s_"

              my @all_tlds = tlds; #array of tlds
              my $all_tlds = tlds; #hashref of tlds and their descriptions

              my @cc_tlds = tlds('cc'); #array of just 'cc' type tlds
              my $cc_tlds = tlds('cc'); #hashref of just 'cc' type tlds and their descriptions

              Valid types are:
                      cc                 - country code domains
                      gtld_open          - generic domains that anyone can register
                      gtld_restricted    - generic restricted registration domains
                      new_open           - recently added generic domains
                      new_restricted     - new restricted registration domains

      _"_t_l_d___e_x_i_s_t_s_"

              die "no such domain" unless tld_exists($tld);
              die "no such domain" unless tld_exists($tld, 'cc');

              This routine returns true if the given domain exists and false if it does not.
