NAME
       MARC::File::MicroLIF - MicroLIF-specific file handling

SYNOPSIS
           use MARC::File::MicroLIF;

           my $file = MARC::File::MicroLIF->in( $filename );

           while ( my $marc = $file->next() ) {
               # Do something
           }
           $file->close();
           undef $file;

EXPORT
       None.

       The buffer must be large enough to handle any valid record because we don't check for
       cases like a CR/LF pair or an end-of-record/CR/LF trio being only partially in the buffer.

       The max valid record is the max MARC record size (99999) plus one or two characters per
       tag (CR, LF, or CR/LF).  It's hard to say what the max number of tags is, so here we use
       6000.  (6000 tags can be squeezed into a MARC record only if every tag has only one
       subfield containing a maximum of one character, or if data from multiple tags overlaps in
       the MARC record body.  We're pretty safe.)

METHODS
   in()
       Opens a MicroLIF file for reading.

       Gets the next chunk of data.  If $want_line is true then you get the next chunk ending
       with any combination of \r and \n of any length.  If it is false or not passed then you
       get the next chunk ending with \x60 followed by any combination of \r and \n of any
       length.

       All trailing \r and \n are stripped.

   header()
       If the MicroLIF file has a file header then the header is returned.  If the file has no
       header or the file has not yet been opened then "undef" is returned.

   decode()
       Decodes a MicroLIF record and returns a USMARC record.

       Can be called in one of three different ways:

           $object->decode( $lif )
           MARC::File::MicroLIF->decode( $lif )
           MARC::File::MicroLIF::decode( $lif )
