IO-stringy: IO-stringy: In the more-traditional IO::Handle front, we have IO::AtomicFile IO-stringy: which may be used to painlessly create files which are updated IO-stringy: atomically. IO-stringy: IO-stringy: And in the "this-may-prove-useful" corner, we have IO::Wrap, whose IO-stringy: exported wraphandle() function will clothe anything that's not a IO-stringy: blessed object in an IO::Handle-like wrapper... so you can just IO-stringy: use OO syntax and stop worrying about whether your function's IO-stringy: caller handed you a string, a globref, or a FileHandle.''
