-=head1 NAME
-
-bytes - Perl pragma to force byte semantics rather than character semantics
-
-=head1 SYNOPSIS
-
-    use bytes;
-    no bytes;
-
-=head1 DESCRIPTION
-
-WARNING: The implementation of Unicode support in Perl is incomplete.
-See L<perlunicode> for the exact details.
-
-The C<use bytes> pragma disables character semantics for the rest of the
-lexical scope in which it appears.  C<no bytes> can be used to reverse
-the effect of C<use bytes> within the current lexical scope.
-
-Perl normally assumes character semantics in the presence of character
-data (i.e. data that has come from a source that has been marked as
-being of a particular character encoding). When C<use bytes> is in
-effect, the encoding is temporarily ignored, and each string is treated
-as a series of bytes. 
-
-As an example, when Perl sees C<$x = chr(400)>, it encodes the character
-in UTF8 and stores it in $x. Then it is marked as character data, so,
-for instance, C<length $x> returns C<1>. However, in the scope of the
-C<bytes> pragma, $x is treated as a series of bytes - the bytes that make
-up the UTF8 encoding - and C<length $x> returns C<2>:
-
-    $x = chr(400);
-    print "Length is ", length $x, "\n";     # "Length is 1"
-    printf "Contents are %vd\n", $x;         # "Contents are 400"
-    { 
-        use bytes;
-        print "Length is ", length $x, "\n"; # "Length is 2"
-        printf "Contents are %vd\n", $x;     # "Contents are 198.144"
-    }
-
-For more on the implications and differences between character
-semantics and byte semantics, see L<perlunicode>.
