=head1 DESCRIPTION
-Prototypes are evil, but sometimes you just have to bear with them, especially when messing with core functions. This module provides several utilities aimed at faciliting "overloading" of prototyped functions.

-=head2 C<recall $name, @args>
+=head2 C<wrap $name, %opts>
-Calls the function C<$name> with the prototyped argument list C<@args>. That is, C<@args> should be what C<@_> is when you define a subroutine with the same prototype as C<$name>. For example,
+Generates a wrapper that calls the function C<$name> with a prototyped argument list.
+That is, the wrapper's arguments should be what C<@_> is when you define a subroutine with the same prototype as C<$name>.
- my $a = [ ];
- recall 'CORE::push', $a, 1, 2, 3;
+ my $a = [ 0 .. 2 ];
+ my $push = wrap 'CORE::push';
+ $push->($a, 3, 4); # returns 3 + 2 = 5 and $a now contains 0 .. 4
+
+You can force the use of a specific prototype.
+In this case, C<$name> must be a hash reference that holds exactly one key / value pair, the key being the function name and the value the prototpye that should be used to call it.
+
+ my $push = wrap { 'CORE::push' => '\@$' }; # only pushes 1 arg
+
+Others arguments are seen as key / value pairs that are meant to tune the code generated by L</wrap>.
+Valid keys are :
+
+=over 4
+
+=item C<< ref => $func >>
+
+Specifies the function used in the generated code to test the reference type of scalars.
+Defaults to C<'ref'>.
+You may also want to use L<Scalar::Util/reftype>.
-will call C<push @$a, 1, 2, 3> and so fill the arrayref C<$a> with C<1, 2, 3>. This is especially needed for core functions because you can't C<goto> into them.
+=item C<< wrong_ref => $code >>
+
+The code executed when a reference of incorrect type is encountered.
+The result of this snippet is also the result of the generated code, hence it defaults to C<'undef'>.
+It's a good place to C<croak> or C<die> too.
+
+=item C<< sub => $bool >>
+
+Encloses the code into a C<sub { }> block.
+Default is true.
+
+=item C<< compile => $bool >>
+
+Makes L</wrap> compile the code generated and return the resulting code reference.
+Be careful that in this case C<ref> must be a fully qualified function name.
+Defaults to true, but turned off when C<sub> is false.
+
+=back
+
+For example, this allows you to recall into C<CORE::grep> and C<CORE::map> by using the C<\&@> prototype :
+
+ my $grep = wrap { 'CORE::grep' => '\&@' };
+ sub mygrep (&@) { $grep->(@_) } # the prototypes are intentionally different
