Otherwise, all stations whose name contains I<$name> as +a substring (also case-insensitive) are returned. + +This two-step behaviour makes sure that not prefix-free stations can still be +matched directly. For instance, both "Essen-Steele" and "Essen-Steele Ost" +are valid station names, but "essen-steele" will only return "Essen-Steele". + +=back + +=head1 DIAGNOSTICS + +None. + +=head1 DEPENDENCIES + +=over + +=item * List::MoreUtils(3pm) + +=back + +=head1 BUGS AND LIMITATIONS + +There is no support for intelligent whitespaces (to also match "-" and similar) +yet. + +=head1 SEE ALSO + +Travel::Status::DE::IRIS(3pm). + +=head1 AUTHOR + +Copyright (C) 2014 by Daniel Friesel E<lt>derf@finalrewind.orgE<gt> + +=head1 LICENSE + +This module is licensed under the same terms as Perl itself. + + |
