Mail::Box::FastScalar - fast alternative to IO::Scalar
Contributed by "Todd Richmond" (richmond@proofpoint.com) This package should be released as separate package, but till then is incorporated in the Mail::Box module.
Extremely fast IO::Scalar replacement - >20x improvement in getline(s)()
You cannot modify the original reference between calls unless you $obj-seek(1, 0)> to reset the object - VERY rare usage case
$obj-
$/ must be undef or string - "" and \scalar unimplemented
See the MailBox website at http://perl.overmeer.net/mailbox/ for more details.
