=item $main |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
This coroutine represents the main program. |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
=item $current |
| 29 |
|
| 30 |
The current coroutine (the last coroutine switched to). The initial value is C<$main> (of course). |

| 36 |
}; |

|
| 38 |
=item $error, $error_msg, $error_coro |
| 39 |
|
| 40 |
This coroutine will be called on fatal errors. C<$error_msg> and |
| 41 |
C<$error_coro> return the error message and the error-causing coroutine, |
| 42 |
respectively. |

=item $coro = new $coderef [, @args] |
| 55 |
|
| 56 |
Create a new coroutine and return it. The first C<resume> call to this |
| 57 |
coroutine will start execution at the given coderef. If it returns it |
| 58 |
should return a coroutine to switch to. If, after returning, the coroutine |
| 59 |
is C<resume>d again it starts execution again at the givne coderef. |
