.SH NAME
Perl::Critic::Policy::Modules::ProhibitMultiplePackages \- Put packages (especially subclasses) in separate files.
.SH AFFILIATION
.IX Header "AFFILIATION"
This Policy is part of the core Perl::Critic
distribution.
.SH DESCRIPTION
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
Conway doesn't specifically mention this, but I find it annoying when
there are multiple packages in the same file.  When searching for
methods or keywords in your editor, it makes it hard to find the right
chunk of code, especially if each package is a subclass of the same
base.
.SH CONFIGURATION
.IX Header "CONFIGURATION"
This Policy is not configurable except for the standard options.
