+=head1 NAME
+
+bytes - Perl pragma to force byte semantics rather than character semantics
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+    use bytes;
+    ... chr(...);       # or bytes::chr
+    ... index(...);     # or bytes::index
+    ... length(...);    # or bytes::length
+    ... ord(...);       # or bytes::ord
+    ... rindex(...);    # or bytes::rindex
+    ... substr(...);    # or bytes::substr
+    no bytes;
+
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+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 UTF-8 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; # or "require bytes; bytes::length()"
+        print "Length is ", length $x, "\n"; # "Length is 2"
+        printf "Contents are %vd\n", $x;     # "Contents are 198.144"
+    }
+
+chr(), ord(), substr(), index() and rindex() behave similarly.
+
+For more on the implications and differences between character
+semantics and byte semantics, see L<perluniintro> and L<perlunicode>.
+
+=head1 LIMITATIONS
+
+bytes::substr() does not work as an lvalue().
