NAME

Acme::Device::Plot - Factory object for creating plot devices for TV & movies

SYNOPSIS

Writers the world over often get stuck wondering what sorts of interesting things can happen to a story, and often come up empty. Leave it to the power of Perl to help automate this critical task.

    my $device = new Acme::Device::Plot;
    print $device->romantic();

This module is a work in progress, undoubtedly best served by input from the masses. The romantic() method is the only one implemented right now, but I welcome outside help.
