HTTP::H...rs::ETag(3)

✨ NAME ✨

HTTP::Headers::ETag β€” bestie, that's the whole vibe. It's a Perl module, it lives in the HTTP::Headers family, and it handles your ETag business πŸ’…

That's literally it, that's the name. The manual page for HTTP::H...rs::ETag(3) (the terminal truncates it because apparently even man pages have a character limit, rude) 🫢


🌸 VERSION 🌸

version 7.03

That's the number, no cap. 7.03. Not 7.3, not 7.03-something, exactly 7.03 ✨

Okay so legal stuff, but make it cute:

Not me being obsessed with a license section. But it's giving generous. It's giving open source royalty. It's giving exactly what it says and nothing more 🌈

Anyway bestie, that's the whole page β€” it's a short one but every single word ate πŸ’…βœ¨
