(These two pieces of code can both be found in the test suite; one as
\&\fIquick.t\fR, the other as \fIfall.t\fR.)
.SH DESCRIPTION
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
\&\f(CW\*(C`Quick\*(C'\fR adds a parser that allows some shortcuts when writing fairly standard
and mundane calls to other formatting modules.
.SH SPECIFICATION
.IX Header "SPECIFICATION"
\&\f(CW\*(C`Quick\*(C'\fR has two keys, one optional.
.PP
The \f(CW\*(C`Quick\*(C'\fR keyword should have an argument of either an object or a class
name. If it's a class name then the class is \f(CW\*(C`use\*(C'\fRd.
.PP
The \f(CW\*(C`method\*(C'\fR keyword is optional with a default of \f(CW\*(C`parse_datetime\*(C'\fR. It's
either name of the method to invoke on the object, or a reference to a piece
of code.
.PP
In any case, the resultant code ends up looking like:
.PP
.Vb 1
\&    my $rv = $Quick\->$method($date);
