discipline corresponds to "text mode" on platforms that distinguish

+
+=head1 IMPLEMENTATION DETAILS
-=head1 UNIMPLEMENTED FUNCTIONALITY
+There are two package variables C<%layers> and C<@layers> which
+are mainly manipulated by C code in F<perlio.c>, but are visible
+to the nosy:
-Full-fledged support for I/O disciplines is currently unimplemented.
-When they are eventually supported, this pragma will serve as one of
-the interfaces to declare default disciplines for all I/O.
+ print "Have ",join(',',keys %open::layers),"\n";
+ print "Using ",join(',',@open::layers),"\n";
-In future, any default disciplines declared by this pragma will be
-available by the special discipline name ":DEFAULT", and could be used
-within handle constructors that allow disciplines to be specified.
-This would make it possible to stack new disciplines over the default
-ones.
+The C<%open::layers> hash is a record of the available "layers" that may be pushed
+onto a C<PerlIO> stream. The values of the hash are perl objects, of class C<PerlIO::Layer>
+which are created by the C code in F<perlio.c>. As yet there is nothing useful you
+can do with the objects at the perl level.
- open FH, "<:para :DEFAULT", $file or die "can't open $file: $!";
+The C<@open::layers> array is the current set of layers and their arguments.
+The array consists of layer => argument pairs and I<must> always have even number of
+entries and the even entries I<must> be C<PerlIO::Layer> objects or perl will "die"
+when it attempts to open a filehandle. In most cases the odd entry will be C<undef>,
+but in the case of (say) ":encoding(iso-8859-1)" it will be 'iso-8859-1'. These
+argument entries are currently restricted to being strings.
-Socket and directory handles will also support disciplines in
-future.
+When a new C<PerlIO> stream is opened, the C code looks at the
+array to determine the default layers to be pushed. So with care it is possible
+to manipulate the default layer "stack":
-Full support for I/O disciplines will enable all of the supported
-disciplines to work on all platforms.

-The C<@perlio::layers> array is the current set of layers that are used when
-a new C<PerlIO> stream is opened. The C code looks are the array each time
-a stream is opened so the "stack" can be manipulated by messing with the array :

- pop(@perlio::layers);
- push(@perlio::layers,$perlio::layers{'stdio'});

-The values if both the hash and the array are perl objects, of class C<perlio::Layer>
-which are created by the C code in C<perlio.c>. As yet there is nothing useful you
-can do with the objects at the perl level.
-
-There are three layers currently defined:
-
