.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
The ZBar Bar Code Reader is a library for scanning and decoding bar
codes from various sources such as video streams, image files or raw
intensity sensors.  It supports \s-1EAN\-13/UPC\-A,\s0 UPC-E, \s-1EAN\-8,\s0 Code 128,
Code 93, Code 39, Codabar, Interleaved 2 of 5 and \s-1QR\s0 Code.
.PP
These are the bindings for interacting directly with the library from
Perl.

.IP "\fBversion()\fR" 4
.IX Item "version()"
Returns the version of the zbar library as "\fImajor\fR.\fIminor\fR".
.IP "\fBincrease_verbosity()\fR" 4
.IX Item "increase_verbosity()"
Increases global library debug by one level.
.IP "set_verbosity(\fIlevel\fR)" 4
.IX Item "set_verbosity(level)"
Sets global library debug to the indicated level.  Higher numbers give
more verbosity.
.IP "parse_config(\fIconfigstr\fR)" 4
.IX Item "parse_config(configstr)"
Parse a decoder configuration setting into a list containing the
symbology constant, config constant, and value to set.  See the
documentation for \f(CW\*(C`zbarcam\*(C'\fR/\f(CW\*(C`zbarimg\*(C'\fR for available configuration
options.
