NAME
   Text::Darts - Perl interface to DARTS by Taku Kudoh

SYNOPSIS
     use Text::Darts;
     my @words = qw/ALGOL ANSI ARCO ARPA ARPANET ASCII/;
     my %word   = map { $_ => lc $_ } @words;
     my $td     = Text::Darts->new(@words);
     my $newstr = $td->gsub("ARPANET is a net by ARPA", sub{ "<<$_[0]>>" });
     # $newstr is now "<<ARPANET>> is a net by <<ARPA>>".
     my $lstr   = $td->gsub("ARPANET is a net by ARPA", \%words);
     # $Lstr is now "arpanet is a net by arpa".

     # or
     my $td     = Text::Darts->open("words.darts"); # make one with mkdarts
     my $newstr = $td->gsub($str, sub{
        qq(<a href="http://dictionary.com/browse/$_[0]">$_[0]</a>)
     }); # link'em all!

DESCRIPTION
   Darts, or Double-ARray Trie System is a C++ Template Library by Taku
   Kudoh. This module makes use of Darts to implement global replace like
   below;

     $str = s{ (foo|bar|baz) }{ "<<$1>>" }msgex;

   The problem with regexp is that it is slow with alterations. Suppose you
   want to anchor all words that appear in /usr/share/dict/words with
   regexp. It would be impractical with regexp. This module makes it
   practical.

   Even if you are using perl 5.10 or better which does TRIE optimization
   internally, you still have to compile the regexp everytime you run the
   script. So it is still more practical to use this module if your match
   is exact -- containing no quantifier.

   Since Version 0.05, Text::Darts also accepts a hash reference instead of
   a code reference. In such cases gsub behaves as follows.

     $str = s{ (foo|bar|baz) }{$replacement{$1}}msgx;

   like "s///ge" vs "s///g", this is less flexible but faster.

REQUIREMENT
   Since Version 0.07, you no longer need to have Darts installed. This
   module now bundles darts.h which is needed to build this module. To get
   the most out of Darts, you still need to install Darts 0.32 or above.
