NAME
       PerlIO::encoding - encoding layer

SYNOPSIS
	 open($f, "<:encoding(foo)", "infoo");
	 open($f, ">:encoding(bar)", "outbar");

	 use Encode qw(:fallbacks);
	 $PerlIO::encoding::fallback = FB_PERLQQ;

DESCRIPTION
       Open a filehandle with a transparent encoding filter.

       On input, convert the bytes expected to be in the specified character
       set and encoding to Perl string data (Unicode and Perl's internal Uni‐
       code encoding, UTF-8).  On output, convert Perl string data into the
       specified character set and encoding.

       When the layer is pushed the current value of $PerlIO::encoding::fall‐
       back is saved and used as the CHECK argument when calling the Encode
       methods encode() and decode().
