NAME

       Devel::REPL::Plugin::MultiLine::PPI - read lines until all blocks are closed

SYNOPSIS

           use Devel::REPL;

           my $repl = Devel::REPL->new;
           $repl->load_plugin('LexEnv');
           $repl->load_plugin('History');
           $repl->load_plugin('MultiLine::PPI');
           $repl->run;

DESCRIPTION

       Plugin that will collect lines until you have no unfinished structures. This lets you
       write subroutines, "if" statements, loops, etc. more naturally.

       For example, without a MultiLine plugin,

           $ my $x = 3;
           3
           $ if ($x == 3) {

       will throw a compile error, because that "if" statement is incomplete. With a MultiLine
       plugin,

           $ my $x = 3;
           3
           $ if ($x == 3) {

           > print "OH NOES!"

           > }
           OH NOES
           1

       you may write the code across multiple lines, such as in "irb" and "python".

       This module uses PPI. This plugin is named "MultiLine::PPI" because someone else may
       conceivably implement similar behavior some other less dependency-heavy way.
