pkgsrc/devel/p5-IO-String/DESCR

IO::String is an IO::File (and IO::Handle) compatible class that
read or write data from in-core strings.  It is really just a
simplification of Eryq's IO-stringy modules.  As such IO::String
is a replacement for IO::Scalar.
Updated to p5-IO-String-1.02 Changes : - Complemented the tiehandle interface with SEEK/TELL/EOF/BINMODE. - Make close($io) untie the object. This make it possible to avoid memory leaks in perl-5.8 which seems to have problems with self-ties.
