=head1 DESCRIPTION
memcached(1) servers have the ability to increment and decrement keys
(overflow and underflow are not detected). This gives you the ability to use
-servers to generate sequences of values.
+memcached to generate shared sequences of values.
memcached_increment() takes a key and keylength and increments the value by
the offset passed to it. The value is then returned via the unsigned int
=head1 RETURN
-memcached_increment() and memcached_decrement() return a memcached_return
-value. For information on this value see memcached_strerr(3).
+A value of type C<memcached_return> is returned.
+On success that value will be C<MEMCACHED_SUCCESS>.
+Use memcached_strerror() to translate this value to a printable string.
