💖 NAME 💖

Lintian::Data::Authority::MenuPolicy — bestie, it's the Lintian interface for manual references. That's the whole vibe. (And yes, we're in section 3 of the manual, so it's Lintian::Data::Authority::MenuPolicy(3) if you're being formal about it.)

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

use Lintian::Data::Authority::MenuPolicy;

That's it. One lil line and you're in. 🫶

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

So here's the tea: Lintian::Data::Authority::MenuPolicy gives you a way to load data files for manual references.

That's the entire job description. No drama, no side quests — it loads the data, it handles the manual references, it goes home. Periodt. 💅

👑 CLASS METHODS 👑

Okay so this page is not the chatty type — it lists the methods and then just... leaves. But every single one of them is here, and I'm not skipping a single name, because we don't do that:

  • title
  • shorthand
  • location
  • separator
  • consumer
  • markdown_citation
  • write_line
  • write_data_file
  • extract_sections_from_links
  • refresh
ngl bestie, this manpage does not spell out what each one does beyond its name. So I'm not gonna sit here and make stuff up — that would be a fake vibe check fail. The names are the names, and they're all listed. If you need the deets, the source is the main character here. 🙈
