=head1 NAME

PerlIO::via::gzip - PerlIO layer for gzip (de)compression

=head1 SYNOPSIS

 # compress
 open( $cfh, ">:via(gzip)", 'stdout.gz' );
 print $cfh @stuff;

 # decompress
 open( $fh, "<:via(gzip)", "stuff.gz" );
 while (<$fh>) {
    ...
 }

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This module provides a PerlIO layer for transparent gzip de/compression,
using L<IO::Compress::Gzip> and L<IO::Uncompress::Gunzip>. 

=head1 Changing compression parameters

On write, compression level and strategy default to the defaults specified in 
L<IO::Compress::Gzip>. To hack these, set

 $PerlIO::via::gzip::COMPRESSION_LEVEL

and

 $PerlIO::via::gzip::COMPRESSION_STRATEGY

to the desired constants, as imported from L<IO::Compress::Gzip>.

=head1 NOTE

When a C<PerlIO::via::gzip> write handle is flushed, the underlying
IO::Compress::Gzip handle is flushed and closed. This appears to be
necessary for getting a valid gzip file when a C<PerlIO::via::gzip>
write handle is closed. See comment in the FLUSH source.
