22 Hash::Case::Preserve extends Hash::Case, which lets you play various
23 trics with hash keys. This extension implements a fake hash which is
24 case-insentive. The keys are administered in the casing as they were
25 used: case-insensitive but case-preserving.

44 tie(HASH, 'Hash::Case::Preserve', [VALUES,] OPTIONS)
45 Define HASH to be case insensitive, but case preserving. The hash
46 is initialized with the VALUES, specified as ref-array (passing a
47 list of key-value pairs) or ref-hash.
48
49 OPTIONS is a list of key/value pairs, which specify how the hash
50 must handle preservation. Current options:
51
52 -Option--Default
53 keep 'LAST'
54
55 keep => 'FIRST' | 'LAST'
56 Which casing is the preferred casing? The FIRST appearance or
57 the LAST. Only stores will affect the casing, deletes will undo
58 the definition. Defaults to LAST, which is slightly faster.
