NAME

tainting - Enable taint mode lexically

VERSION

version 0.01

SYNOPSIS

To enable tainting in a lexical block: 

 {
     use tainting;
     # tainting is enabled
 }
 # tainting is disabled again

To disable tainting in a lexical block:

 use tainting;
 {
     no tainting;
     # tainting is disabled
 }
 # tainting is enabled again

DESCRIPTION

This module provides a simpler interface to Taint::Runtime. The idea is so that there is no functions or variables to import. Just "use" or "no", like warnings or strict. Tainting of %ENV will be done one time automatically the first time this module is used.

Please (PLEASE) read Taint::Runtime's documentation first about the pro's and con's of enabling/disabling tainting at runtime. TL;DR: Use -T if you can.
