+=head1 NAME
+
+Time::localtime - by-name interface to Perl's built-in localtime() function
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+ use Time::localtime;
+ printf "Year is %d\n", localtime->year() + 1900;
+
+ $now = ctime();
+
+ use Time::localtime;
+ use File::stat;
+ $date_string = ctime(stat($file)->mtime);
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+This module's default exports override the core localtime() function,
+replacing it with a version that returns "Time::tm" objects.
+This object has methods that return the similarly named structure field
+name from the C's tm structure from F<time.h>; namely sec, min, hour,
+mday, mon, year, wday, yday, and isdst.
+
+You may also import all the structure fields directly into your namespace
+as regular variables using the :FIELDS import tag.  (Note that this still
+overrides your core functions.)  Access these fields as
+variables named with a preceding C<tm_> in front their method names.
+Thus, C<$tm_obj-E<gt>mday()> corresponds to $tm_mday if you import
+the fields.
+
+The ctime() function provides a way of getting at the 
+scalar sense of the original CORE::localtime() function.
+
+To access this functionality without the core overrides,
+pass the C<use> an empty import list, and then access
+function functions with their full qualified names.
+On the other hand, the built-ins are still available
+via the C<CORE::> pseudo-package.
+
+=head1 NOTE
+
+While this class is currently implemented using the Class::Struct
+module to build a struct-like class, you shouldn't rely upon this.
