=head1 NAME

Acme::DoOrDie - do-file replacement that dies on errors

=head1 SYNOPSIS

 use Acme::DoOrDie;

 do_or_die("config.pl");

=head1 DESCRIPTION

Error handling for the C<do(FILENAME)> built-in function is
inconvenient.  The main problem is that you need to examine more than
just the return value to distinguish a file-not-found condition from a
successful invocation of a file that ends with these two statements:

 $! = ENOENT;
 undef;

(The L<autodie> module can't help you since it doesn't support the
C<do> function.)

This module provides the replacement function C<do_or_die> that reports
any error by throwing an exception.  The same function is also available
under the alias C<do> (not exported by default).
