  Description     : Simple OO base class for CLI applications

CLI::Simple provides a standard, simply way to create a Perl script=C2=A0
that=C2=A0takes options, commands and arguments. It also configures Log4per=
l.

It is ideal for: internal tools and admin scripts, CLIs where you don't
want a framework, and if you want to subclass a clean, minimal interface.

For more advanced features, look at something like App::Cmd,=C2=A0
CLI::Framework=C2=A0or MooX::Options.

It is a new dependency required to allow upgrading libmarkdown-render-
perl=C2=A0to a newer version.

The package will be maintained under the umbrella of the Debian Perl Group.
