DESCRIPTION

       SOAPsh.pl is a shell for making SOAP calls. It takes two parameters:
       mandatory endpoint and optional uri (actually it will tell you about it
       if you try to run it). Additional commands can follow.

       After that you'll be able to run any methods of SOAP::Lite, like auto-
       type, readable, encoding, etc. You can run it the same way as you do it
       in your Perl script. You'll see output from method, result of SOAP
       call, detailed info on SOAP faulure or transport error.

       For full list of available methods see documentation for SOAP::Lite.

       Along with methods of SOAP::Lite you'll be able (and that's much more
       interesting) run any SOAP methods you know about on remote server and
       see processed results. You can even switch on debugging (with call
       something like: "on_debug(sub{print@_})") and see SOAP code with head-
       ers sent and recieved.
