I'll try that option and see what I can get.

Still, there's an open patch at
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1481069&group_id=134081&atid=730645
that says:
"""
Summary: (?)
pass file-like objects to write
In a cgi script you use mosty sys.stdout to write to
the client with this little patch this is possible.
"""
but it has not been submitted yet.
