-=head1 ABSTRACT
-
-C<assertions> pragma selects the tags used to control assertion
-execution.
-
 =head1 DESCRIPTION
 
+The C<assertions> pragma specifies the tags used to enable and disable
+the execution of assertion subroutines.
 
+An assertion subroutine is declared with the C<:assertion> attribute.
+This subroutine is not normally executed : it's optimized away by perl
+at compile-time.
 
-
-=head2 EXPORT
-
-None by default.
+The C<assertion> pragma associates to its lexical scope one or several
+assertion tags. Then, to activate the execution of the assertions
+subroutines in this scope, these tags must be given to perl via the
+B<-A> command-line option.
