NAME

6       Lingua::Flags - Provide small flag icons
7

SYNOPSIS

9       Provides small flag icons in different formats.
10
11           use Lingua::Flags;
12
13           my $foo = as_html_img("PT");
14           print "<p>This is in $foo language</p>";
15
16           open GIF, ">image.gif";
17           print GIF as_gif("PT");
18           close GIF;
19

DISCLAIMER

21       It is impossible to map flags to languages. Languages cross countries.
22       And countries cross languages. What language should use the Spanish
23       flag? The Catalan or Castilian or other? What flag should be used for
24       Afrikaans? South Africa or Namibia?
25
26       I tried to choose the more consensual flags, but in some cases I have
27       doubts. If you have better ideas, please correct me.
28
29       Nevertheless, I think this module is useful.

33       image or as a gif image.
34

42
