=head1 NAME

Acme::MorseComments - Completely useless module that replaces all of your software's comments with morse code.

=head1 SYNOPSIS

    use Acme::MorseComments;

=head1 DESCRIPTION

    Simply use this module, and it will change all of your comments to
    morse code, and rewrite itself without the use line in it.

    A copy of the original file will be saved in $0.orig.  If $0.orig
    cannot be successfully saved, then the morse-coded file will be output
    to STDOUT, and the original file will remain unchanged.

=head1 BUGS

    None that I'm aware of, but it's always possible.  E-mail me should
    you find any.
