in thread help in ruby code to perl

I'm sorry, I can not find anything in the documentation (so far) that says that open and binmode do different things with :raw.    Could you point me in the right dirrection please?

Update: Perhaps you are thinking of this section of PerlIO: 

       To get an un-buffered stream specify an unbuffered layer (e.g. 
+":unix") in the open call:

           open($fh,"<:unix",$path)

    I don't know it to be in the docs.

    And from what I see, it actually contradicts PerlIO which claims :raw only pops layers that aren't compatible with binary data.

    Perhaps you are thinking of this section of PerlIO:

    No, I know this from PerlMonks discussions.
