Hello Monks, I have been trying to convert the plupload script to perl for usage in my app. I have worked in PHP but I see that a few new parts have come in since I last used it. so if any of you can help me out by showing how I can convert the following piece of php jibber jabber into nice and friendly perl, I would be very grateful. 
      
      // Read binary input stream and append it to temp file
            $in = fopen("php://input", "rb");

            if ($in) {
                while ($buff = fread($in, 4096))
                    fwrite($out, $buff);
            } else
                die('{"jsonrpc" : "2.0", "error" : {"code": 101, "mess
+age": "Failed to open input stream."}, "id" : "id"}');

            fclose($in);
            fclose($out);
