   Apache2::WebApp::Plugin::File - Plugin providing file handling methods

SYNOPSIS
     my $obj = $c->plugin('File')->method( ... );     # Apache2::WebApp::Plugin::File->method()

       or

     $c->plugin('File')->method( ... );

DESCRIPTION
   Common methods for processing and outputting files.

PREREQUISITES
   This package is part of a larger distribution and was NOT intended to be
   used directly. In order for this plugin to work properly, the following
   packages must be installed:

     Apache2::WebApp
     MIME::Types
     Params::Validate

INSTALLATION
   From source:

     $ tar xfz Apache2-WebApp-Plugin-File-0.X.X.tar.gz
     $ perl MakeFile.PL PREFIX=~/path/to/custom/dir LIB=~/path/to/custom/lib
     $ make
     $ make test
     $ make install

   Perl one liner using CPAN.pm:

     $ perl -MCPAN -e 'install Apache2::WebApp::Plugin::File'

   Use of CPAN.pm in interactive mode:

     $ perl -MCPAN -e shell
     cpan> install Apache2::WebApp::Plugin::File
     cpan> quit

   Just like the manual installation of Perl modules, the user may need
   root access during this process to insure write permission is allowed
   within the installation directory.

OBJECT METHODS
 open
   Open the file in a web browser window.

     $c->plugin('File')->open( \%controller, '/path/to/file' );

 download
   Force the file as a web browser download.

     $c->plugin('File')->download( \%controller, '/path/to/file' );
