I'm writing a module which subclasses CGI.pm and automatically gzips output if the browser has "Accept-Encoding: gzip" set and the script emits a text/html mimetype. To be as drop-in as possible, it uses select() to make the gzip filter the primary output channel, and changes it back when the CGI object is destroyed. It's relies on IO::Zlib to do the heavy lifting.
Questions:
1) I was unable to find anything similar in CPAN. Does anybody know if I'm duplicating
existing effort (other than mod_gzip for Apache of course)?
You are. Check these modules at least:
