15 Although superficially looking like a normal PPI::Token::Word object,
16 when the "__DATA__" and "__END__" compiler tags appear at the beginning
17 of a line (on supposedly) their own line, these tags become file
18 section separators.

20 The indicate that the time for Perl code is over, and the rest of the
21 file is dedicated to something else (data in the case of "__DATA__") or
22 to nothing at all (in the case of "__END__").

25 This class has no methods beyond what is provided by its
26 PPI::Token::Word, PPI::Token and PPI::Element parent classes.
