Subject: 'barf' should be in @EXPORT
Given that writing to a file is pretty easy in Perl already, it seems to me that the sole benefit of IO::Barf is quick scripts and one-liners. Making the caller explicitly request to import 'barf' makes it less suited for this purpose. 'barf' should be exported by default. To put it another way: can you imagine anybody wanting to use IO::Barf but not import the only function it provides?

ok. You are right, i can export barf implicitly. I will change it. M.
