  Description     : Biblio::Thesaurus - Perl extension for managing ISO thesaurus

A Thesaurus is a classification structure. We can see it as a graph where
nodes are terms and the vertices are relations between terms. This module
provides transparent methods to maintain Thesaurus files. The module uses
a subset from ISO 2788 which defines some standard features to be found on
thesaurus files. This ISO includes a set of relations that can be seen as
standard but, this program can use user defined ones. So, it can be used
on ISO or not ISO thesaurus files.
