I am trying to get the MHonArc package to work in conjunction with an in
house module.
When MHonArc (http://www.mhonarc.org) is run and told to process a
single file instead of a directoy full of files, it sends the output to
STDOUT which inside of mod_perl in this case is the browser. I am using
the process_input() function as outlined in the MHonArc mailing list
archives.
I need to save the output to a variable. It was suggested by Earl Hood
(author of MHonArc) that I tie a string to a filehandle and then dup the
filehandle to STDOUT. This sounds great, but I am unsure where to
place the code that will allow for this or how this needs to be done
with mod_perl. (I read perltie and perlopentut, but it didn't light any
bulbs). I got some results, but none that produced the desired results.
The closest was getting the output to be directed to the resulting HTML
page, but not the variable.
I saw a email from 97 in the mod_perl archives that discussed untie
*STDOUT and then retying it back to Apache after the section of code was
complete, but it showed STDOUT being linked to a file open, how could I
assign that to a tied string then a filehandle as suggested by Earl
Hood? Is anything like this bulit into mod_perl or another module at
this time?

The process_input function is running under mod_perl.
If any other information is needed please let me know.
I have a horribly ugly hack working currently, but it prevents MHonArc
from running in a normal manner (i.e. processing mailinglists)
