NAME

       B::Keywords - Lists of reserved barewords and symbol names

SYNOPSIS

         use B::Keywords qw( @Symbols @Barewords );
         print join "\n", @Symbols,
                          @Barewords;

DESCRIPTION

       "B::Keywords" supplies several arrays of exportable keywords: @Scalars, @Arrays, @Hashes,
       @Filehandles, @Symbols, @Functions, @Barewords, @TieIOMethods, @UNIVERSALMethods and
       @ExporterSymbols.

       The @Symbols array includes the contents of each of @Scalars, @Arrays, @Hashes, @Functions
       and @Filehandles.

       Similarly, @Barewords adds a few non-function keywords and operators to the @Functions
       array.

       All additions and modifications are welcome.

       The perl parser uses a static list of keywords from regen/keywords.pl which constitutes
       the strict list of keywords @Functions and @Barewords, though some @Functions are not
       functions in the strict sense.  Several library functions use more special symbols,
       handles and methods.

DATA

       @Scalars
       @Arrays
       @Hashes
       @Filehandles
       @Functions
           The above are lists of variables, special file handles, and built in functions.

       @Symbols
           This is just the combination of all of the above: variables, file handles, and
           functions.

       @Barewords
           This is a list of other special keywords in perl including operators and all the
           control structures.

       @TieIOMethods
           Those are special tie or PerlIO methods called by the perl core, namely for tieing or
           PerlIO::via (or both of those) or threads.

       @UNIVERSALMethods
           Methods defined by the core package UNIVERSAL.

       @ExporterSymbols
           Variables or functions used by Exporter (some internal), which is almost as good as
           being keywords, for you mustn't use them for any other purpose in any package that isa
           Exporter, which is quite common.

EXPORT

       Anything can be exported if you desire. Use the :all tag to get everything.
