14 The "PPI::Token::QuoteLike" class is never instantiated, and simply
15 provides a common abstract base class for the five quote-like operator
16 classes. In PPI, a "quote-like" is the set of quote-like things that
17 exclude the string quotes and regular expressions.
18
19 The subclasses of "PPI::Token::QuoteLike" are:
20
21 qw{} - PPI::Token::QuoteLike::Words
22 `` - PPI::Token::QuoteLike::Backtick
23 qx{} - PPI::Token::QuoteLike::Command
24 qr// - PPI::Token::QuoteLike::Regexp
25 <FOO> - PPI::Token::QuoteLike::Readline
26
27 The names are hopefully obvious enough not to have to explain what each
28 class is. See their pages for more details.

30 You may note that the backtick and command quote-like are treated
31 separately, even though they do the same thing. This is intentional, as
32 the inherit from and are processed by two different parts of the PPI's
33 quote engine.
