NAME

POE::Filter::Ident -- A POE-based parser for the Ident protocol.

SYNOPSIS

    my $filter = POE::Filter::Ident->new();
    my @events = @{$filter->get( [ @lines ] )};

DESCRIPTION

POE::Filter::Ident takes lines of raw Ident input and turns them into weird little data structures, suitable for feeding to POE::Component::Client::Ident::Agent. They look like this:

    { name => 'event name', args => [ some info about the event ] }

CONSTRUCTOR

"new": Creates a new POE::Filter::Ident object. Takes no arguments.

METHODS

"get": Takes an array reference full of lines of raw Ident text. Returns an array reference of processed, pasteurized events.
"put": There is no "put" method. That would be kinda silly for this filter, don't you think?
"debug": Pass true/false value to enable/disable debugging information.
