(TOC) of all parts at the beginning of DATA, e.g.:

 __DATA__
 Data::Section::Seekable v1
 part1,0,14
 part2,14,17,important
 
 This is part1
 This is part
 two

The first paragraph after B<DATA> is called the TOC which lists all the parts
along with their offsets and lengths. It is therefore possible to locate any
part just from reading the TOC instead of scanning for headers on the whole
data. It is useful when the amount of data is quite large and you need quick
access to random parts.


=item * L<Inline::Files> - Multiple virtual files at the end of your code

Author: L<AMBS|https://metacpan.org/author/AMBS>

This is a prior art for L<Data::Section> but more magical (using source
filters) and allows writing in addition to reading your parts. It completely
replaces B<DATA> with an unlimited number of B<LABEL>'s. I'd be wary in using
it, and the module itself gives such warning.

=head1 FAQ

=head2 What is an Acme::CPANModules::* module?

An Acme::CPANModules::* module, like this module, contains just a list of module
names that share a common characteristics. It is a way to categorize modules and
document CPAN. See L<Acme::CPANModules> for more details.

=head2 What are ways to use this Acme::CPANModules module?

Aside from reading this Acme::CPANModules module's POD documentation, you can
install all the listed modules (entries) using L<cpanm-cpanmodules> script (from
L<App::cpanm::cpanmodules> distribution):

 % cpanm-cpanmodules -n StructuredDATA

Alternatively you can use the L<cpanmodules> CLI (from L<App::cpanmodules>
distribution):

    % cpanmodules ls-entries StructuredDATA | cpanm -n

or L<Acme::CM::Get>:

    % perl -MAcme::CM::Get=StructuredDATA -E'say $_->{module} for @{ $LIST->{entries} }' | cpanm -n

or directly:

    % perl -MAcme::CPANModules::StructuredDATA -E'say $_->{module} for @{ $Acme::CPANModules::StructuredDATA::LIST->{entries} }' | cpanm -n

This Acme::CPANModules module also helps L<lcpan> produce a more meaningful
result for C<lcpan related-mods> command when it comes to finding related
modules for the modules listed in this Acme::CPANModules module.
See L<App::lcpan::Cmd::related_mods> for more details on how "related modules"
are found.

=head1 CONTRIBUTING


To contribute, you can send patches by email/via RT, or send pull requests on
GitHub.

Most of the time, you don't need to build the distribution yourself. You can
simply modify the code, then test via:

 % prove -l

If you want to build the distribution (e.g. to try to install it locally on your
system), you can install L<Dist::Zilla>,
L<Dist::Zilla::PluginBundle::Author::PERLANCAR>, and sometimes one or two other
Dist::Zilla plugin and/or Pod::Weaver::Plugin. Any additional steps required
beyond that are considered a bug and can be reported to me.
