=head1 NAME

Net::DNS::RR::TXT - DNS TXT resource record

=head1 SYNOPSIS

C<use Net::DNS::RR>;

=head1 DESCRIPTION

Class for DNS Text (TXT) resource records.

=head1 METHODS

=head2 txtdata

    print "txtdata = ", $rr->txtdata, "\n";

Returns the descriptive text as a single string, regardless of actual 
number of <character-string> elements.  Of questionable value.  Should 
be deprecated.  

Use C<TXT-E<gt>rdatastr()> or C<TXT-E<gt>char_str_list()> instead.

=head2 char_str_list

    print "Individual <character-string> list: \n\t", \
		    join ( "\n\t", $rr->char_str_list() );

Returns a list of the individual <character-string> elements, 
as unquoted strings.  Used by TXT->rdatastr and TXT->rr_rdata.
