NAME

Proc::Simple::Async - Keyword sugar for Proc::Simple

SYNOPSIS

async {
  some_task();
};

my $proc = async {
  some_other_task(@_)
} 1,2,3,4;

FUNCTIONS

async

Provides a prettier way of doing

my $proc = Proc::Simple->new;

$proc->start (sub { some_task() });

WHY?

Because everyone should know what's wrong with iThreads, and forks.pm can be difficult to work with. Sometimes you just want to fork off a task without having to care too much or design your application around the solution. Proc::Simple provides a nice interface to forking off tasks and this module provides some sugar around it to make the taste even sweeter.
