Hello all, I'm currently working on a project that is to be done in mod_perl2, and I'd like to to fiddle a bit with the way data is output (more precisely I'd like to buffer it). Now, I managed to get this done in m_p1 by overloading Apache::PRINT. However I've noticed that m_p2 uses PerlIO and not the tie() interface, so I figured learning how to do this would be good.
It's just that I've found the learning curve on PerlIO is rather steep. So I'd like to ask the perlmonks if someone could point me in the direction of some good resources on how to fiddle with Apache2's output via mod_perl.

Thanks in advance for any insight you can provide on this.
