I'd greatly appreciate doc patches. I think nobody looks at POE::Wheel, so the methods probably ought to be documented in each subclass. I briefly considered whether the wheel should guarantee flushing on shutdown, but I decided against it. Sometimes people may want to shut down a client regardless of the input waiting for it. Maybe the shutdown methods need flush/immediate options? -- Rocco Caputo - http://poe.perl.org/
