+.SH NAME
+autouse \- postpone load of modules until a function is used
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.IX Header "SYNOPSIS"
+.Vb 2
+\&  use autouse \*(AqCarp\*(Aq => qw(carp croak);
+\&  carp "this carp was predeclared and autoused ";
+.Ve
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
+If the module \f(CW\*(C`Module\*(C'\fR is already loaded, then the declaration
+.PP
+.Vb 1
+\&  use autouse \*(AqModule\*(Aq => qw(func1 func2($;$));
+.Ve
+.PP
+is equivalent to
+.PP
+.Vb 1
+\&  use Module qw(func1 func2);
+.Ve
+.PP
+if \f(CW\*(C`Module\*(C'\fR defines \fBfunc2()\fR with prototype \f(CW\*(C`($;$)\*(C'\fR, and \fBfunc1()\fR has
+no prototypes.  (At least if \f(CW\*(C`Module\*(C'\fR uses \f(CW\*(C`Exporter\*(C'\fR's \f(CW\*(C`import\*(C'\fR,
+otherwise it is a fatal error.)
+.PP
+If the module \f(CW\*(C`Module\*(C'\fR is not loaded yet, then the above declaration
+declares functions \fBfunc1()\fR and \fBfunc2()\fR in the current package.  When
+these functions are called, they load the package \f(CW\*(C`Module\*(C'\fR if needed,
+and substitute themselves with the correct definitions.
+.SH WARNING
+.IX Header "WARNING"
+Using \f(CW\*(C`autouse\*(C'\fR will move important steps of your program's execution
+from compile time to runtime.  This can
+.IP \(bu 4
+Break the execution of your program if the module you \f(CW\*(C`autouse\*(C'\fRd has
+some initialization which it expects to be done early.
+.IP \(bu 4
+hide bugs in your code since important checks (like correctness of
+prototypes) is moved from compile time to runtime.  In particular, if
+the prototype you specified on \f(CW\*(C`autouse\*(C'\fR line is wrong, you will not
+find it out until the corresponding function is executed.  This will be
+very unfortunate for functions which are not always called (note that
+for such functions \f(CW\*(C`autouse\*(C'\fRing gives biggest win, for a workaround
+see below).
+.PP
+To alleviate the second problem (partially) it is advised to write
+your scripts like this:
+.PP
+.Vb 3
+\&  use Module;
+\&  use autouse Module => qw(carp($) croak(&$));
+\&  carp "this carp was predeclared and autoused ";
+.Ve
+.PP
+The first line ensures that the errors in your argument specification
+are found early.  When you ship your application you should comment
+out the first line, since it makes the second one useless.
