If nothing is passed, it will revert to the last committed item. If the last item committed item is the same as the current, it will revert to the previous item. This may change in the future. =back =head1 DESCRIPTION Tie::History will allow you to keep a history of previous versions of a variable, by means of committed the changes. As this is all stored in memory, it is not for use in a production system, but best kept for debugging. =head2 EXPORT None by default. =head1 SEE ALSO L L =head1 AUTHOR Larry Shatzer, Jr., Elarrysh@cpan.orgE =head1 COPYRIGHT AND LICENSE Copyright 2004 by Larry Shatzer, Jr. This library is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the same terms as Perl itself. =cut
