  use Class::Implant;

  implant qw(Less::More);                 # mixing all methods from Less::More, 
                                          # like ruby 'include'

  implant qw(Foo::Bar), { inherit => 1 }; # import all methods from Foo::Bar and inherit it
                                          # it just do one more step: unshift Foo::Bar into @ISA
