-=head1 NAME
-
-Pod::Functions - Group Perl's functions a la perlfunc.pod
-
-=head1 SYNOPSIS
-
- use Pod::Functions;
-
- my @misc_ops = @{ $Kinds{ 'Misc' } };
- my $misc_dsc = $Type_Description{ 'Misc' };
-
-or
-
- perl /path/to/lib/Pod/Functions.pm
-
-This will print a grouped list of Perl's functions, like the
-L<perlfunc/"Perl Functions by Category"> section.
-
-=head1 DESCRIPTION
-
-It exports the following variables:
-
-=over 4
-
-=item %Kinds
-
-This holds a hash-of-lists. Each list contains the functions in the category
-the key denotes.
-
-=item %Type
-
-In this hash each key represents a function and the value is the category.
-The category can be a comma separated list.
-
-=item %Flavor
-
-In this hash each key represents a function and the value is a short
-description of that function.
-
-=item %Type_Description
-
-In this hash each key represents a category of functions and the value is
-a short description of that category.
-
-=item @Type_Order
-
-This list of categories is used to produce the same order as the
-L<perlfunc/"Perl Functions by Category"> section.
