This example sends html, but you could create other types of data. HTH.

    my $ret_html = <<HTDATA;
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" />
<title>Example</title>
</head>
<body>
</body>
</html>
HTDATA

    send_file( \$ret_html, content_type => 'text/html');
