The Petal::Utils package contains commonly used Petal modifiers (or plugins), and bundles them with an easy-to-use installation interface. By default, a set of modifiers are installed into Petal when you use this module. You can change which modifiers are installed by naming them after the use statement: # use the default set: use Petal::Utils qw( :default ); # use the date set of modifiers: use Petal::Utils qw( :date ); # use only named modifiers, plus the debug set: use Petal::Utils qw( UpperCase Date :debug ); # don't install any modifiers use Petal::Utils qw(); You'll find a list of plugin sets throughout this document. You can also get a complete list by looking at the variable: %Petal::Utils::PLUGIN_SET; For details on how the plugins are installed, see the "Advanced Petal" section of the Petal documentation.
