48 | Extensions may add additional resources and C<actions>, i.e., methods |
49 | loaded automatically when used. |
49 | which can be bound to a key and invoked by the user. An extension can |
|
|
50 | define the resources it support using so called META comments, |
|
|
51 | described below. Similarly to builtin resources, extension resources |
|
|
52 | can also be specified on the command line as long options (with C<.> |
|
|
53 | replaced by C<->), in which case the corresponding extension is loaded |
|
|
54 | automatically. For this to work the extension B<must> define META |
|
|
55 | comments for its resources. |
