    CleanUp
        Release memory, file items and clean up files. Should be called
        after a decoidng run, if you want to start a new one.

  Setting and querying options
    $option = GetOption OPT_xxx
    SetOption OPT_xxx, opt-value

    See the "OPT_xxx" constants above to see which options exist.

  Setting various callbacks
    SetMsgCallback [callback-function]
    SetBusyCallback [callback-function]
    SetFileCallback [callback-function]
    SetFNameFilter [callback-function]

  Call the currently selected FNameFilter
    $file = FNameFilter $file

  Loading sourcefiles, optionally fuzzy merge and start decoding
    ($retval, $count) = LoadFile $fname, [$id, [$delflag, [$partno]]]

    functions - generally these are functions accessing the disk and/or
    using considerable CPU time:

       LoadFile
       $item->decode
       $item->decode_temp
       $item->remove_temp
       $item->info

    The perl interpreter will be reacquired/released on every callback
    invocation, so for performance reasons, callbacks should be avoided if
    that is costly.

    Future versions might enable multicore support for more functions.

BUGS AND LIMITATIONS
    The original uulib library this module uses was written at a time where
    main memory of measured in megabytes and buffer overflows as a security
    thign didn't exist. While a lot of security fixes have been applied over
    the years (includign some defense in depth mechanism that can shield
    against a lot of as-of-yet undetected bugs), using this library for
