 AnyEvent::Handle - non-blocking I/O on file handles via AnyEvent
 =cut
-our $VERSION = 4.14;
+our $VERSION = 4.22;
 =head1 SYNOPSIS
    use AnyEvent;
    use AnyEvent::Handle;
 NOTE: The filehandle will be set to non-blocking (using
 AnyEvent::Util::fh_nonblocking).
 =item on_eof => $cb->($handle)
-Set the callback to be called when an end-of-file condition is detcted,
+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.
 While not mandatory, it is highly recommended to set an eof callback,
 otherwise you might end up with a closed socket while you are still
 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
 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 (this disadvantage is
+usually avoided by your kernel's nagle algorithm, see C<low_delay>).
+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.
+=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 cna be
+accomplishd by setting this option to true.
+The default is your opertaing system's default behaviour, 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
 during each (loop iteration). Default: C<8192>.

 ways, the "simple" way, using only C<on_read> and the "complex" way, using
 a queue.
 In the simple case, you just install an C<on_read> callback and whenever
 new data arrives, it will be called. You can then remove some data (if
-enough is there) from the read buffer (C<< $handle->rbuf >>) if you want

 In the more complex case, you want to queue multiple callbacks. In this
 case, AnyEvent::Handle will call the first queued callback each time new
 data arrives (also the first time it is queued) and removes it when it has
 done its job (see C<push_read>, below).
