=head1 NAME

Acme::emcA - Acme::emcA

=head1 VERSION

This document describes version 0.10 of Acme::emcA, released
December 12, 2005.

=head1 SYNOPSIS

    use Acme::emcA;
    print "Hello, World";

=head1 DESCRIPTION

The first time you run a program under C<use Acme::emcA>, the module takes
your source file and makes an mirror image of it at both row- and column-
level.  The code continues to work exactly as it did before, but now it looks
like this:

		;use Acme::emcA esu;

    ;"!dlroW ,olleH" tnirpprint "Hello, World!";

    ;"!dlroW ,olleH" tnirpprint "Hello, World!";

		;use Acme::emcA esu;

=head1 DIAGNOSTICS

=over 4

=item C<Can't reverse "%s">

Acme::emcA could not access the source file to modify it.
