=head1 NAME
Perl::Critic::Policy::Subroutines::ProhibitNestedSubs - Too many arguments.
=head1 AFFILIATION
This Policy is part of the core L<Perl::Critic> distribution.
=head1 DESCRIPTION
B<Attention would-be clever Perl writers (including Younger RJBS):>
This does not do what you think:
sub do_something {
...
sub do_subprocess {
...
}
...
}
C<do_subprocess()> is global, despite where it is declared.
Either write your subs without nesting or use anonymous code
references.
=head1 CONFIGURATION
This Policy is not configurable except for the standard options.
=head1 NOTE
Originally part of L<Perl::Critic::Tics>.
