            parsers => {
                parse_datetime => [
                    { Quick => '[DateTime::Format::HTTP](https://www.chedong.com/phpMan.php/perldoc/DateTime%3A%3AFormat%3A%3AHTTP/markdown)' },

                ]
            }
        );

        # is the same as

        use [DateTime::Format::HTTP](https://www.chedong.com/phpMan.php/perldoc/DateTime%3A%3AFormat%3A%3AHTTP/markdown);
        use [DateTime::Format::Mail](https://www.chedong.com/phpMan.php/perldoc/DateTime%3A%3AFormat%3A%3AMail/markdown);
        use [DateTime::Format::IBeat](https://www.chedong.com/phpMan.php/perldoc/DateTime%3A%3AFormat%3A%3AIBeat/markdown);

        use [DateTime::Format::Builder](https://www.chedong.com/phpMan.php/perldoc/DateTime%3A%3AFormat%3A%3ABuilder/markdown) (
            parsers => {
                parse_datetime => [
                    sub {
                        eval { [DateTime::Format::HTTP](https://www.chedong.com/phpMan.php/perldoc/DateTime%3A%3AFormat%3A%3AHTTP/markdown)->parse_datetime( $_[1] ) }
                    },
                    sub {
                        eval { [DateTime::Format::Mail](https://www.chedong.com/phpMan.php/perldoc/DateTime%3A%3AFormat%3A%3AMail/markdown)->parse_datetime( $_[1] ) }
                    },
                    sub {
                        eval { [DateTime::Format::IBeat](https://www.chedong.com/phpMan.php/perldoc/DateTime%3A%3AFormat%3A%3AIBeat/markdown)->parse_datetime( $_[1] ) }
                    },
                ]
            }
        );

    (These two pieces of code can both be found in the test suite; one as quick.t, the other as
    fall.t.)

## DESCRIPTION
    "Quick" adds a parser that allows some shortcuts when writing fairly standard and mundane calls
    to other formatting modules.

## SPECIFICATION
    "Quick" has two keys, one optional.

    The "Quick" keyword should have an argument of either an object or a class name. If it's a class
    name then the class is "use"d.

    The "method" keyword is optional with a default of "parse_datetime". It's either name of the
    method to invoke on the object, or a reference to a piece of code.

    In any case, the resultant code ends up looking like:

        my $rv = $Quick->$method($date);
