DESCRIPTION
===========

This is essentially a third-party pragma, using the (possibly evil) magic of the "augment" feature: this means it should be used only with extreme caution. It's primary intended use is learning and/or debugging sessions using the repl.

With this pseudo-pragma, every object or class should have an "m" method, which is an even shorter alias for the "menu" method defined by Object::Examine. It gives you a list of all available methods, much like the built-in "^methods" method but in a format that's hopefully more readable and informative, albiet much more verbose.

The "m" method is named after the perl5 debugger command "m".

TROUBLESHOOTING
===============

installation
------------

The pseudo-pragma method-menu needs three other modules:

    Symbol::Scan
       |

    Object::Examine      Augment::Util
      |                    |
      |--------------------/
      |
    method-menu

If there are issues with getting all four components installed, you might resort to manual installation. The code is available on github:
