=head1 NAME

Acme::Everything - Effectively loads every class in CPAN

=head1 SYNOPSIS

    use Acme::Everything;

    Any::Module->any_method;

=head1 DESCRIPTION

B<Acme::Everything> is the ultimate run-time loader. With one 'use' line,
you effectively load all 20,000,000 odd lines of code in CPAN.

Run ANY method in ANY class, and Acme::Everything will download and/or
load the module as needed at runtime, including its recursive installation
dependencies, and every class all the way up the @ISA path as needed.

For all of this, Acme::Everything is implemented in only 13 lines of code,
by using CPANPLUS and linking parasitically into Class::Autouse 'superloader'.

The only restriction is that Acme::Everything will ONLY work when calling as a
method. Calling as a function will not cause the magic to happen.
