+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
+\&\f(CW\*(C`IO::Poll\*(C'\fR is a simple interface to the system level poll routine.
+.SH METHODS
+.IX Header "METHODS"
+.IP "mask ( IO [, EVENT_MASK ] )" 4
+.IX Item "mask ( IO [, EVENT_MASK ] )"
+If EVENT_MASK is given, then, if EVENT_MASK is non-zero, IO is added to the
+list of file descriptors and the next call to poll will check for
+any event specified in EVENT_MASK. If EVENT_MASK is zero then IO will be
+removed from the list of file descriptors.
+.Sp
+If EVENT_MASK is not given then the return value will be the current
+event mask value for IO.
+.IP "poll ( [ TIMEOUT ] )" 4
+.IX Item "poll ( [ TIMEOUT ] )"
+Call the system level poll routine. If TIMEOUT is not specified then the
+call will block. Returns the number of handles which had events
+happen, or \-1 on error.
+.IP "events ( IO )" 4
+.IX Item "events ( IO )"
+Returns the event mask which represents the events that happened on IO
+during the last call to \f(CW\*(C`poll\*(C'\fR.
+.IP "remove ( IO )" 4
+.IX Item "remove ( IO )"
+Remove IO from the list of file descriptors for the next poll.
+.IP "handles( [ EVENT_MASK ] )" 4
+.IX Item "handles( [ EVENT_MASK ] )"
+Returns a list of handles. If EVENT_MASK is not given then a list of all
+handles known will be returned. If EVENT_MASK is given then a list
+of handles will be returned which had one of the events specified by
+EVENT_MASK happen during the last call ti \f(CW\*(C`poll\*(C'\fR
