Hello all, I have to write CGI script, which read some files from server and create ZIP archive and send this ZIP to client. Problem is, I don't like to save ZIP file to temp file and after read the temp and send it to client. So question is: how to create ZIP file to variable? So far I've this snippet: 
use Archive::Zip qw( :ERROR_CODES :CONSTANTS );
my $zip = Archive::Zip->new();
while( my($k,$v) = each(%$hr) ) {
    my $member = $zip->addString( $v->{content}, $v->{FileName} );
}
#here should be a line how to access zipped contents

Thanks for any help, I hope this is possible.
