PDF::Bu...teDecode(3)

✨ NAME ✨

PDF::Builder::Basic::PDF::Filter::FlateDecode — the compress-and-uncompress stream filters for Flate 💖

okay so bestie, real talk: this is the little filter that does the Flate thing both ways — squishing streams down and puffing them back up. Compress and uncompress, one module, no cap. 🫶

🌸 INHERITANCE 🌸

This one inherits from PDF::Builder::Basic::PDF::Filter — so all the base-class energy comes free, iykyk. 👑

🎀 THE VIBE CHECK 🎀

ngl, that's genuinely the whole page. It's giving short and iconic. No options list, no environment variables, no exit statuses, no bugs section — just a class doing its one job flawlessly and then leaving the chat. 💅

Not me wishing every manpage was this chill though 😭

fr fr though — if you need the actual guts of what Flate does to your bytes, that's the base class PDF::Builder::Basic::PDF::Filter's business, not this one's. This module is just the Flate-flavoured main character. ⭐
