=head1 DESCRIPTION
+Converts a string into a hash of values, just like C<unpack>
+except that it allows you to name and nest the resulting elements.
+
+Format declarations are simalar to C<pack> templates,
+with the following additions:
+
+=over
+
+=item *
+
+An array ref groups additional declarations,
+with the first value specifying a repetition. If this count is variable,
+the resulting value will be an array ref of hashes.
+
+ repeat => ['C', name => 'a*', value => 'S']
+
+With a count of 1, it will return only a hash ref,
+thereby simply grouping declarations:
+
+ test_foo => 'C'
+ test => [1, foo => 'C']
+
+=item *
+
+A template value of C<Ca$length> is recognised as a length-preceded string
+with a constant (maximal) size, and will return only the string adjusted
+to its length.
+This behaviour is very similar to C<(C/a@x$length)>, except that it never reads
+more than the given number of bytes.
+
+=item *
+
+Hardcoded values can be inserted using C<=$number> values.
+This can for example be useful to retain forwards-compatibility:
+
+ rows => ['C',
+ type => '=1', # nothing read
+ data => 'S',
+ ]
+
+ rows => ['C',
+ type => 'C',
+ data => 'S',
+ ]
