=head1 VERSION

version 2.84

=head1 SYNOPSIS

 use alienfile;
 share {
   start_url 'http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/make';
   plugin 'Download';
 };

=head1 DESCRIPTION

Fetch plugins retrieve single resources from the internet.  The difference
between a Fetch plugin and a Download plugin is that Download
plugin may fetch several resources from the internet (usually using
a Fetch plugin), before finding the final archive.  Normally you
will not need to use Fetch plugins directly but should instead
use the L<Alien::Build::Plugin::Download::Negotiate> plugin, which
will pick the best plugins for your given URL.
