NAME

Text::Shoebox::Entry -- class for Shoebox SF lexicon entries

SYNOPSIS

use Text::Shoebox::Lexicon;
my $lex = Text::Shoebox::Lexicon->read_file( "haida.sf" );

foreach my $entry ($lex->entries) {
  #
  # Each $entry is a Text::Shoebox::Entry object
  #
  my %e = $entry->as_list;
  print "Looky, stuff! [", %e, "]!\n";
}

DESCRIPTION

An object of this class represents an entry in a SF lexicon (Text::Shoebox::Lexicon).

An entry consists of a number of fields. Each field has two scalars, a key, and a value. The first field in an entry is considered the headword field, and its key must occur there and only there in that entry. There is no requirement on uniqueness of keys in the rest of the entry.
