1 This module implements some sane defaults for Perl programs,
2 as defined by two typical (or not so typical - use your
3 common sense) specimens of Perl coders.
4 In fact, after working out details on which warnings and
5 strict modes to enable and make fatal, we found that we
6 (and our code written so far, and others) fully agree on
7 every option, even though we never used warnings before,
8 so it seems this module indeed reflects a "common" sense
9 among some long-time Perl coders.
11 The basic philosophy behind the choices made in common::sense
12 can be summarised as: "enforcing strict policies to catch as
13 many bugs as possible, while at the same time, not limiting
14 the expressive power available to the programmer".
