# DESCRIPTION

The Extorter module allows you to create import lists which extract routines
from the package(s) specified. It will import routines found in the package
variables `@EXPORT`, `@EXPORT_OK` and `%EXPORT_TAGS`, or, extract routines
defined in the package which are not explicitly exported. Otherwise, as a last
resort, Extorter will try to load the package, using a parameterized `use`
statement, in the event that the package has a custom or magical exporter that
does not conform to the [Exporter](http://search.cpan.org/perldoc?Exporter) interface.

Extorter accepts a list of fully-qualified declarations. Although the Extorter
syntax may seem strange (uncommon), it is designed to be useful in a variety of
circumstances, as well as promote clean and reasonable import lists. It has the
added bonus of extracting functionality from packages which may not have
originally been designed to be exported. Declarations are handled in the order
in which they're declared, which means, as far as the import and/or extraction
order goes, the last routine declared will be the one available to your program
and any `redefine` warnings will be suppressed. This is a feature not a bug.
