NAME
       CGI::Untaint::printable - validate as a printable value

SYNOPSIS
	 my $name = $handler->extract(-as_printable => 'name');

DESCRIPTION
       This Input Handler verifies that it is dealing with an 'printable' string i.e. characters in the range 40-377 (plus 
 and 
).

       The empty string is taken to be printable.

       This is occasionally a useful 'fallback' pattern, but in general you will want to write your own patterns to be stricter.
