                     Release of version 2.09 of Switch
==============================================================================


NAME
   Switch - A switch statement for Perl

DESCRIPTION

   Switch.pm provides the syntax and semantics for an explicit case
   mechanism for Perl. The syntax is minimal, introducing only the
   keywords C<switch> and C<case> and conforming to the general pattern
   of existing Perl control structures. The semantics are particularly
   rich, allowing any one (or more) of nearly 30 forms of matching to
   be used when comparing a switch value with its various cases.
