=head1 SYNOPSIS

    use ARGV::OrDATA;

    while (<>) {
        print;
    }

    __DATA__
    You'll see this if you don't redirect something to the script's
    STDIN or you don't specify a filename on the command line.

=head1 DESCRIPTION

Tell your script it should use the DATA section if there's no input
coming from STDIN and there are no arguments.

You can also specify which package's DATA should be read instead of
the caller's:

    use My::Module;
    use ARGV::OrDATA 'My::Module';

    while (<>) {  # This reads from My/Module.pm's DATA section.

To restore the old behaviour, you can call the C method.

    use ARGV::OrDATA;

    my $from_data = <>;

    @ARGV = 'file1.txt';  # Ignored.

    'ARGV::OrDATA'->unimport;

    @ARGV = 'file2.txt';  # Works.

    my $from_file2 = <>;

Calling C after C would restore the DATA handle, but
B, i.e. it would continue from where you stopped
(see t/04-unimport.t).

=head2 Why?

I use this technique when solving programming contests. The sample
input is usually small and I don't want to waste time by saving it
into a file.

=head1 EXPORT

Nothing.
