Package::Rename - Rename or copy package
Version 0.02
This module allows you to rename, copy or even remove packages from the perl namespace.
This module defines the following functions. They are all optionally exported.
Give a package a different name. This is the equivalent of first linking a package, and then removing its original name.
Make a 'hard link' of a package, thus giving it a second name.
Remove a package from the namespace. You probably don't want to use this yourself unless you really know what you're doing.
Copy the complete contents of a package.

Perl looks up functions during compile time but methods run time. This fact can be useful (see namespace::clean for an example of that), but also to confusing.
You can find documentation for this module with the perldoc command.
