NAME
       inc::Module::Install - Module::Install configuration system

SYNOPSIS
	 use inc::Module::Install;

DESCRIPTION
       This module first checks whether the inc/.author directory exists, and removes the whole inc/ directory if it does, so the module author
       always get a fresh inc every time they run Makefile.PL.	Next, it unshifts "inc" into @INC, then loads Module::Install from there.

       Below is an explanation of the reason for using a loader module:

       The original implementation of CPAN::MakeMaker introduces subtle problems for distributions ending with "CPAN" (e.g. CPAN.pm,
       WAIT::Format::CPAN), because its placement in ./CPAN/ duplicates the real libraries that will get installed; also, the directory name
       ./CPAN/ may confuse users.

       On the other hand, putting included, for-build-time-only libraries in ./inc/ is a normal practice, and there is little chance that a CPAN
       distribution will be called "Something::inc", so it's much safer to use.

       Also, it allows for other helper modules like Module::AutoInstall to reside also in inc/, and to make use of them.
