DESCRIPTION

26       This class represents the base of the class hierarchy for tokens in the
27       PPIx::Regexp package.
28

METHODS

30       This class provides the following public methods. Methods not
31       documented here are private, and unsupported in the sense that the
32       author reserves the right to change or remove them without notice.
33
34   can_be_quantified
35        $token->can_be_quantified()
36            and print "This token can be quantified.\n";
37
38       This method returns true if the token can be quantified.
39
40   is_quantifier
41        $token->is_quantifier()
42            and print "This token is a quantifier.\n";
43
44       This method returns true if the token is a quantifier. You can not tell
45       this from the token's class, because a right curly bracket may
46       represent a quantifier for the purposes of figuring out whether a
47       greediness token is possible.
