autobox version 2.21
====================

The autobox pragma endows Perl's core datatypes with the capabilities of
first-class objects. This allows methods to be called on ARRAY refs,
HASH refs, CODE refs and raw scalars in exactly the same manner as blessed
references. The autoboxing is transparent: boxed values are not blessed
into their (user-defined) implementation class (unless the method elects to
bestow such a blessing) - they simply use its methods as though they are.

autobox is lexically scoped, and bindings for an outer scope
can be overridden or countermanded in a nested scope.

See the POD for more details.
