Description

The LockFile::Simple extension provides simple file locking, of the advisory kind, i.e. it requires cooperation between applications wishing to lock the same files. It is meant to be used in quick-and-dirty scripts or more elaborated programs that want a simple locking scheme, yet with a reasonable level of configuration.
