NAME
PerlIO::eol - PerlIO layer for normalizing line endings
VERSION
This document describes version 0.01 of PerlIO::eol, released October 7, 2004.
SYNOPSIS
binmode STDIN, ":raw:eol(LF)";
binmode STDOUT, ":raw:eol(CRLF)";DESCRIPTION
This layer normalizes any of CR, LF and CRLF into the designated line ending. It works for both input and output handles.
It is advised to pop any potential :crlf or encoding layers before this layer; this is usually done using a :raw prefix.
CAVEATS
If the source stream ends with a single CR, it may be silently dropped; this is a limitation inherited from PerlIO::nline's design. Patches to implement the correct Flush and Unread handlers are most welcome.
