This toolkit primarily provides modules for performing both traditional and object-oriented i/o) on things *other* than normal filehandles; in particular, IO::Scalar, IO::ScalarArray, and IO::Lines. This Perl module provides the following functions : IO::AtomicFile Write a file which is updated atomically IO::Lines I/O handle to read/write to array of lines IO::Scalar I/O handle to read/write to a string IO::ScalarArray I/O handle to read/write to array of scalars IO::Wrap Wrap old-style FHs in standard OO interface IO::WrapTie Tie your handles & retain full OO interface
