re - Perl pragma to alter regular expression behaviour
'taint' mode When "use re 'taint'" is in effect, and a tainted string is the target of a regexp, the regexp memories (or values returned by the m// operator in list context) are tainted. This feature is useful when regexp operations on tainted data a...

open - perl pragma to set default PerlIO layers for input and output
Full-fledged support for I/O layers is now implemented provided Perl is configured to use PerlIO as its IO system (which has been the default since 5.8, and the only supported configuration since 5.16). The "open" pragma serves as one of the interfac...

bytes - Perl pragma to expose the individual bytes of characters
Perl's characters are stored internally as sequences of one or more bytes. This pragma allows for the examination of the individual bytes that together comprise a character. Originally the pragma was designed for the loftier goal of helping incorpora...

feature - Perl pragma to enable new features
It is usually impossible to add new syntax to Perl without breaking some existing programs. This pragma provides a way to minimize that risk. New syntactic constructs, or new semantic meanings to older constructs, can be enabled by "use feature 'foo'...

PerlIO - On demand loader for PerlIO layers and root of PerlIO::* name space
When an undefined layer 'foo' is encountered in an "open" or "binmode" layer specification then C code performs the equivalent of: use PerlIO 'foo'; The Perl code in PerlIO.pm then attempts to locate a layer by doing require PerlIO::foo; Otherwise th...

perlop - Perl operators and precedence
In Perl, the operator determines what operation is performed, independent of the type of the operands. For example "$x + $y" is always a numeric addition, and if $x or $y do not contain numbers, an attempt is made to convert them to numbers first. Th...
