- Summary: PerlIO::via::Timeout - a PerlIO layer that adds read & write timeout to a handle

Description:
This package implements a PerlIO layer, that adds read / write
timeout. This can be useful to avoid blocking while accessing a handle
(file, socket, ...), and fail after some time.
The timeout is implemented by using <select> on the handle before
reading/writing.
WARNING the handle won't timeout if you use sysread or syswrite on it,
because these functions works at a lower level. However if you're
trying to implement a timeout for a socket, see IO::Socket::Timeout
that implements exactly that.
