DESCRIPTION
"cpanfile" describes CPAN dependencies required to execute associated Perl code.
Place the "cpanfile" in the root of the directory containing the associated code. For instance, in a Catalyst application, place the
"cpanfile" in the same directory as "myapp.conf".
Tools supporting "cpanfile" format (e.g. cpanm and carton) will automatically detect the file and install dependencies for the code to run.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
The format (DSL syntax) is inspired by Module::Install and Module::Build::Functions.
