This is the Tie::TextDir module. It is a TIEHASH interface which lets you
tie a Perl hash to a directory of textfiles:
use Tie::TextDir;
tie (%hash, 'Tie::TextDir', '/some_directory', 'rw'); # Open in read/write mode
$hash{'one'} = "some text"; # Creates file /some_directory/one
# with contents "some text"
untie %hash;
tie (%hash, 'Tie::TextDir', '/etc'); # Defaults to read-only mode
print $hash{'passwd'}; # Prints contents of /etc/passwd
For more specific information, please see the documentation inside
TextDir.pm, by doing "pod2txt TextDir.pm", or "perldoc Tie::TextDir" once
you've installed the module.
