package Class::Modular;
=head1 SYNOPSIS
- package Foo::Bar;
+ package Foo;
use base qw(Class::Modular);
+ [...]
+
+ use Foo;
+
+ $foo = new Foo;
+ $foo->load('Bar');
+ $foo->method_that_bar_provides;
+
+
=head1 DESCRIPTION
Class::Modular is a superclass for generating modular classes, where
without modifying the base classes. This allows for code to be more
modular, and reduces code duplication.
-It fills the middle ground between traditional class based OOP and
-classless OOP. L<Class::Mutator> and L<Sex> are similar to
-Class::Modular but less manic.

-Creates a new C<Foo::Bar> object.
+Creates a new Foo::Bar object
Aditional arguments can be passed to this creator, and they are stored
-in C<$self->{_creation_args}>. You can also override the new method in
-your subclass. It's just provided here for completeness.

+just provided here for completeness.
=cut
=head3 Function
Stores the arguments used at new so modules that are loaded later can
-read them
+read them from B<creation_args>
+
+You can also override this method, but if you do so, you should call
+Class::Modular::_init(@_) if you don't set creation_args.
