=head1 DESCRIPTION
=head2 C<reap $callback, $context>
-Add a destructor that calls C<$callback> when the upper scope represented by C<$context> ends.
+Adds a destructor that calls C<$callback> (in void context) when the upper scope represented by C<$context> ends.
=head2 C<localize $what, $value, $context>
-A C<local> delayed to the time of first return into the upper scope denoted by C<$context>.
+Introduces a C<local> delayed to the time of first return into the upper scope denoted by C<$context>.
C<$what> can be :
=over 4
will set C<$x> to a reference to the string C<'foo'>.
Other sigils (C<'@'>, C<'%'>, C<'&'> and C<'*'>) require C<$value> to be a reference of the corresponding type.
-When the symbol is given by a string, it is resolved when the actual localization takes place and not when C<localize> is called.
-This means that
+When the symbol is given by a string, it is resolved when the actual localization takes place and not when L</localize> is called.
+Thus, if the symbol name is not qualified, it will refer to the variable in the package where the localization actually takes place and not in the one where the L</localize> call was compiled.
+For example,
+
+ {
+ package Scope;
+ sub new { localize '$tag', $_[0] => UP }
+ }
+
+ {
+ package Tool;
+ {
+ Scope->new;
+ ...
+ }
+ }
- sub tag { localize '$x', $_[0] => UP }
+will localize C<$Tool::tag> and not C<$Scope::tag>.
+If you want the other behaviour, you just have to specify C<$what> as a glob or a qualified name.
-will localize in the caller's namespace.
+Note that if C<$what> is a string denoting a variable that wasn't declared beforehand, the relevant slot will be vivified as needed and won't be deleted from the glob when the localization ends.
+This situation never arises with C<local> because it only compiles when the localized variable is already declared.
+Although I believe it shouldn't be a problem as glob slots definedness is pretty much an implementation detail, this behaviour may change in the future if proved harmful.
=back
=head2 C<localize_elem $what, $key, $value, $context>
-Similar to L</localize> but for array and hash elements.
-If C<$what> is a glob, the slot to fill is determined from which type of reference C<$value> is ; otherwise it's inferred from the sigil.
+Introduces a C<local $what[$key] = $value> or C<local $what{$key} = $value> delayed to the time of first return into the upper scope denoted by C<$context>.
+Unlike L</localize>, C<$what> must be a string and the type of localization is inferred from its sigil.
+The two only valid types are array and hash ; for anything besides those, L</localize_elem> will throw an exception.
C<$key> is either an array index or a hash key, depending of which kind of variable you localize.
+If C<$what> is a string pointing to an undeclared variable, the variable will be vivified as soon as the localization occurs and emptied when it ends, although it will still exist in its glob.
+
=head2 C<localize_delete $what, $key, $context>
-Similiar to L</localize>, but for deleting variables or array/hash elements.
+Introduces the deletion of a variable or an array/hash element delayed to the time of first return into the upper scope denoted by C<$context>.
C<$what> can be:
=over 4
=head2 C<unwind @values, $context>
-Returns C<@values> I<from> the context pointed by C<$context>, i.e. from the subroutine, eval or format just above C<$context>, and immediately restart the program flow at this point - thus effectively returning to (or from, depending on how you see it) an upper context.
+Returns C<@values> I<from> the context pointed by C<$context>, i.e. from the subroutine, eval or format at or just above C<$context>, and immediately restart the program flow at this point - thus effectively returning to an upper scope.
The upper context isn't coerced onto C<@values>, which is hence always evaluated in list context.
This means that
my $num = sub {
my @a = ('a' .. 'z');
unwind @a => HERE;
+ # not reached
}->();
will set C<$num> to C<'z'>.
=head2 C<want_at $context>
-Like C<wantarray>, but for the subroutine/eval/format just above C<$context>.
+Like C<wantarray>, but for the subroutine/eval/format at or just above C<$context>.
The previous example can then be "corrected" :
my $num = sub {
my @a = ('a' .. 'z');
unwind +(want_at(HERE) ? @a : scalar @a) => HERE;
+ # not reached
}->();
-will righteously set C<$num> to C<26>.
+will rightfully set C<$num> to C<26>.
+
+=head1 CONSTANTS
+
+=head2 C<SU_THREADSAFE>
+
+True iff the module could have been built when thread-safety features.
=head1 WORDS
=head3 C<SUB $from>
The context of the closest subroutine above C<$from>.
+Note that C<$from> is returned if it is already a subroutine context ; hence C<SUB SUB == SUB>.
=head3 C<EVAL $from>
The context of the closest eval above C<$from>.
+Note that C<$from> is returned if it is already an eval context ; hence C<EVAL EVAL == EVAL>.
=head2 Getting a context from a level
The context of the C<$level>-th upper subroutine/eval/format.
It kind of corresponds to the context represented by C<caller $level>, but while e.g. C<caller 0> refers to the caller context, C<CALLER 0> will refer to the top scope in the current context.
+=head2 Examples
+
+Where L</reap> fires depending on the C<$cxt> :
+
+ sub {
+ eval {
+ sub {
+ {
+ reap \&cleanup => $cxt;
+ ...
+ } # $cxt = SCOPE(0), or HERE
+ ...
+ }->(); # $cxt = SCOPE(1), or UP, or SUB, or CALLER, or CALLER(0)
+ ...
+ }; # $cxt = SCOPE(2), or UP UP, or UP SUB, or EVAL, or CALLER(1)
+ ...
+ }->(); # $cxt = SCOPE(3), or SUB UP SUB, or SUB EVAL, or CALLER(2)
+ ...
+
+Where L</localize>, L</localize_elem> and L</localize_delete> act depending on the C<$cxt> :
+
+ sub {
+ eval {
+ sub {
+ {
+ localize '$x' => 1 => $cxt;
+ # $cxt = SCOPE(0), or HERE
+ ...
+ }
+ # $cxt = SCOPE(1), or UP, or SUB, or CALLER, or CALLER(0)
+ ...
+ }->();
+ # $cxt = SCOPE(2), or UP UP, or UP SUB, or EVAL, or CALLER(1)
+ ...
+ };
+ # $cxt = SCOPE(3), or SUB UP SUB, or SUB EVAL, or CALLER(2)
+ ...
+ }->();
+ # $cxt = SCOPE(4), UP SUB UP SUB, or UP SUB EVAL, or UP CALLER(2), or TOP
+ ...
+
+Where L</unwind> and L</want_at> point to depending on the C<$cxt>:
+
+ sub {
+ eval {
+ sub {
+ {
+ unwind @things => $cxt;
+ ...
+ }
+ ...
+ }->(); # $cxt = SCOPE(0 .. 1), or HERE, or UP, or SUB, or CALLER(0)
+ ...
+ }; # $cxt = SCOPE(2), or UP UP, or UP SUB, or EVAL, or CALLER(1)
+ ...
+ }->(); # $cxt = SCOPE(3), or SUB UP SUB, or SUB EVAL, or CALLER(2)
+ ...

Same goes for the words L</TOP>, L</HERE>, L</UP>, L</SUB>, L</EVAL>, L</SCOPE> and L</CALLER> that are only exported on request, individually or by the tags C<':words'> and C<':all'>.
