+=head1 NAME
+
+Env - perl module that imports environment variables as scalars or arrays
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+ use Env;
+ use Env qw(PATH HOME TERM);
+ use Env qw($SHELL @LD_LIBRARY_PATH);
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+Perl maintains environment variables in a special hash named C<%ENV>. For
+when this access method is inconvenient, the Perl module C<Env> allows
+environment variables to be treated as scalar or array variables.
+
+The C<Env::import()> function ties environment variables with suitable
+names to global Perl variables with the same names. By default it
+ties all existing environment variables (C<keys %ENV>) to scalars. If
+the C<import> function receives arguments, it takes them to be a list of
+variables to tie; it's okay if they don't yet exist. The scalar type
+prefix '$' is inferred for any element of this list not prefixed by '$'
+or '@'. Arrays are implemented in terms of C<split> and C<join>, using
+C<$Config::Config{path_sep}> as the delimiter.
+
+After an environment variable is tied, merely use it like a normal variable.
+You may access its value
+
+ @path = split(/:/, $PATH);
+ print join("\n", @LD_LIBRARY_PATH), "\n";
+
+or modify it
+
+ $PATH .= ":.";
+ push @LD_LIBRARY_PATH, $dir;
+
+however you'd like. Bear in mind, however, that each access to a tied array
+variable requires splitting the environment variable's string anew.
+
+The code:
+
+ use Env qw(@PATH);
+ push @PATH, '.';
+
+is equivalent to:
+
+ use Env qw(PATH);
+ $PATH .= ":.";
+
+except that if C<$ENV{PATH}> started out empty, the second approach leaves
+it with the (odd) value "C<:.>", but the first approach leaves it with "C<.>".
+
+To remove a tied environment variable from
+the environment, assign it the undefined value
+
+ undef $PATH;
+ undef @LD_LIBRARY_PATH;
+
+=head1 LIMITATIONS
+
+On VMS systems, arrays tied to environment variables are read-only. Attempting
+to change anything will cause a warning.
