+=head2 Alternative syntax
+
+Perl 6 will provide a built-in switch statement with essentially the
+same semantics as those offered by Switch.pm, but with a different
+pair of keywords. In Perl 6 C<switch> with be spelled C<given>, and
+C<case> will be pronounced C<when>. In addition, the C<when> statement
+will use a colon between its case value and its block (removing the
+need to parenthesize variables.
+
+This future syntax is also available via the Switch.pm module, by
+importing it with the argument C<"Perl6">. For example:
+
+ use Switch 'Perl6';
+
+ given ($val) {
+ when 1 : { handle_num_1(); }
+ when $str1 : { handle_str_1(); }
+ when [0..9] : { handle_num_any(); last }
+ when /\d/ : { handle_dig_any(); }
+ when /.*/ : { handle_str_any(); }
+ }
+
+Note that you can mix and match both syntaxes by importing the module
+with:
+
+ use Switch 'Perl5', 'Perl6';

+
+
+NAME
+ Switch - A switch statement for Perl
+
+DESCRIPTION
+
+ Switch.pm provides the syntax and semantics for an explicit case
+ mechanism for Perl. The syntax is minimal, introducing only the
+ keywords C<switch> and C<case> and conforming to the general pattern
+ of existing Perl control structures. The semantics are particularly
+ rich, allowing any one (or more) of nearly 30 forms of matching to
+ be used when comparing a switch value with its various cases.
