Authen::Passphrase::Clear - cleartext passphrases

       Andrew Main (Zefram) <zefram@fysh.org>

       Authen::Passphrase::Clear->new(PASSPHRASE)
           Returns  a passphrase recogniser object that stores the specified passphrase in cleartext and accepts
           only that passphrase.

       Authen::Passphrase::Clear->from_rfc2307(USERPASSWORD)
           Generates a cleartext passphrase recogniser from the supplied  RFC2307  encoding.   The  string  must
           consist of "{CLEARTEXT}" (case insensitive) followed by the passphrase.

       An object of this class is a passphrase recogniser that accepts some particular passphrase which it
       knows.  This is a subclass of Authen::Passphrase, and this document assumes that the reader is familiar
       with the documentation for that class.

       Warning: Storing a passphrase in cleartext, as this class does, is a very bad idea.  It means that anyone
       who sees the passphrase file immediately knows all the passphrases.  Do not use this unless you really
       know what you're doing.

           trivially works.
