Randal thank you for the article and the code post. I used your example to verify that the dont_flood (aka Flood => 1) works. Basically I took your code post and made a "noise" generator. What I found was that your code without the Flood => 1 setting did what it was suppose to and threw away excess lines. With Flood => 1 turned on it allowed the bot to flood the channel after 15 or secs or so. So that pretty much answers that, flood control works fine, the buffering in POE::Wheel::ReadWrite is just the price I pay. My solution will be to re-format the few comands I have that generate long lists of output. Thanks again to everyone for the insights. Mike Tremaine [EMAIL PROTECTED]
