Subject:
later vs. autouse?
Hello Erwan,
I think you should explain the differences between the standard perl
module "autouse" and "later" (if there any) in the Pod.
Regards,
Slaven

I am the one thanking, it was a very good suggestion :)
In the end the main difference is that 'autouse' does only a 'require' while
'later' does both a 'require' and a call to the module's 'import' function
(which is what 'use' really does)...
