NAME
       Template::Plugin::Class - allow calling of class methods on arbitrary classes

SYNOPSIS
	 [% USE foo = Class('Foo') %]
	 [% foo.bar %]

DESCRIPTION
       Template::Plugin::Class allows you to call class methods on arbitrary classes.  One use for this is in Class::DBI style applications, where
       you may do somthing like this:

	 [% USE cd = Class('Music::CD') %]
	 [% FOREACH disc = cd.retrieve_all %]
	 [% disc.artist %] - [% disc.title %]
	 [% END %]

CAVEATS
       You won't be able to directly call "AUTOLOAD" or "DESTROY" methods on the remote class.	This shouldn't be a huge hardship.

BUGS
       Apart from the mentioned caveat, none currently known.  If you find any please contact the author.
