NAME Env::Array - perl module that imports environment variables as arrays SYNOPSIS use Env::Array qw(PATH :); DESCRIPTION The Perl module `Env::Array' allows environment variables to be treated as array variables, much the way that the module `Env' them to be treated as scalar variables. The Env::Array::import() function requires pairs of environment variable names and delimiter strings to be presented in the `use' statement. Unlike `Env', there is no default behavior when no arguments are given to `use' (except to print an error message and die). After an environment variable is tied, just use it like an ordinary array. Bear in mind, however, that each access to the variable requires splitting the string anew. Requires Perl 5.005 or later for proper operation due to the use of tied arrays.
