 =head1 SYNOPSIS
    use AnyEvent;
    use AnyEvent::Handle;
 This module is a helper module to make it easier to do event-based I/O on
 filehandles. For utility functions for doing non-blocking connects and accepts
 on sockets see L<AnyEvent::Util>.
+The L<AnyEvent::Intro> tutorial contains some well-documented
+AnyEvent::Handle examples.
 In the following, when the documentation refers to of "bytes" then this
 means characters. As sysread and syswrite are used for all I/O, their
 treatment of characters applies to this module as well.
 All callbacks will be invoked with the handle object as their first

+Set the callback to be called when an end-of-file condition is detected,
 i.e. in the case of a socket, when the other side has closed the
 connection cleanly.
+For sockets, this just means that the other side has stopped sending data,
+you can still try to write data, and, in fact, one can return from the eof
+callback and continue writing data, as only the read part has been shut
+down.

+While not mandatory, it is I<highly> recommended to set an eof callback,
 otherwise you might end up with a closed socket while you are still
 waiting for data.
+If an EOF condition has been detected but no C<on_eof> callback has been
+set, then a fatal error will be raised with C<$!> set to <0>.
 =item on_error => $cb->($handle, $fatal)
 This is the error callback, which is called when, well, some error
 occured, such as not being able to resolve the hostname, failure to
 connect or a read error.
 Some errors are fatal (which is indicated by C<$fatal> being true). On
-fatal errors the handle object will be shut down and will not be

+when this callback is invoked. Examples of non-fatal errors are timeouts
+C<ETIMEDOUT>) or badly-formatted data (C<EBADMSG>).
 On callback entrance, the value of C<$!> contains the operating system
 error (or C<ENOSPC>, C<EPIPE>, C<ETIMEDOUT> or C<EBADMSG>).
 While not mandatory, it is I<highly> recommended to set this callback, as
 This sets the callback that is called when the write buffer becomes empty
 (or when the callback is set and the buffer is empty already).
 To append to the write buffer, use the C<< ->push_write >> method.
+This callback is useful when you don't want to put all of your write data
+into the queue at once, for example, when you want to write the contents
+of some file to the socket you might not want to read the whole file into
+memory and push it into the queue, but instead only read more data from
+the file when the write queue becomes empty.
 =item timeout => $fractional_seconds
 If non-zero, then this enables an "inactivity" timeout: whenever this many
 seconds pass without a successful read or write on the underlying file
 handle, the C<on_timeout> callback will be invoked (and if that one is
-missing, an C<ETIMEDOUT> error will be raised).
+missing, a non-fatal C<ETIMEDOUT> error will be raised).
 Note that timeout processing is also active when you currently do not have
 any outstanding read or write requests: If you plan to keep the connection
 idle then you should disable the timout temporarily or ignore the timeout
-in the C<on_timeout> callback.
+in the C<on_timeout> callback, in which case AnyEvent::Handle will simply
+restart the timeout.
 Zero (the default) disables this timeout.
 =item on_timeout => $cb->($handle)
 =item rbuf_max => <bytes>
 If defined, then a fatal error will be raised (with C<$!> set to C<ENOSPC>)
 when the read buffer ever (strictly) exceeds this size. This is useful to
-avoid denial-of-service attacks.
+avoid some forms of denial-of-service attacks.
 For example, a server accepting connections from untrusted sources should
 be configured to accept only so-and-so much data that it cannot act on
 (for example, when expecting a line, an attacker could send an unlimited
 amount of data without a callback ever being called as long as the line
 isn't finished).
+=item autocork => <boolean>
+When disabled (the default), then C<push_write> will try to immediately
+write the data to the handle, if possible. This avoids having to register
+a write watcher and wait for the next event loop iteration, but can
+be inefficient if you write multiple small chunks (on the wire, this
+disadvantage is usually avoided by your kernel's nagle algorithm, see
+C<no_delay>, but this option can save costly syscalls).
+When enabled, then writes will always be queued till the next event loop
+iteration. This is efficient when you do many small writes per iteration,
+but less efficient when you do a single write only per iteration (or when
+the write buffer often is full). It also increases write latency.
+=item no_delay => <boolean>
+When doing small writes on sockets, your operating system kernel might
+wait a bit for more data before actually sending it out. This is called
+the Nagle algorithm, and usually it is beneficial.
+In some situations you want as low a delay as possible, which can be
+accomplishd by setting this option to a true value.
+The default is your opertaing system's default behaviour (most likely
+enabled), this option explicitly enables or disables it, if possible.
 =item read_size => <bytes>
-The default read block size (the amount of bytes this module will try to read
+The default read block size (the amount of bytes this module will
-during each (loop iteration). Default: C<8192>.
+try to read during each loop iteration, which affects memory
+requirements). Default: C<8192>.
 =item low_water_mark => <bytes>
 Sets the amount of bytes (default: C<0>) that make up an "empty" write
 buffer: If the write reaches this size or gets even samller it is
 considered empty.
+Sometimes it can be beneficial (for performance reasons) to add data to
+the write buffer before it is fully drained, but this is a rare case, as
+the operating system kernel usually buffers data as well, so the default
+is good in almost all cases.
+=item linger => <seconds>
+If non-zero (default: C<3600>), then the destructor of the
+AnyEvent::Handle object will check whether there is still outstanding
+write data and will install a watcher that will write this data to the
+socket. No errors will be reported (this mostly matches how the operating
+system treats outstanding data at socket close time).
+This will not work for partial TLS data that could not be encoded
+yet. This data will be lost.

 This function creates and returns the Net::SSLeay::CTX object used by

 At least initially, when you pass a C<tls>-argument to the constructor it
-will end up in C<< $handle->{tls} >>. Those members might be changes or
+will end up in C<< $handle->{tls} >>. Those members might be changed or
 mutated later on (for example C<tls> will hold the TLS connection object).

 All object members not explicitly documented (internal use) are prefixed
