Not much. You just have to override the default content type in the
header:
print header(-type=>'image/gif');
and to send a cookie in the usual way:
$cookie = cookie(...);
print header(-cookie => $cookie);
Putting 'em together:
use CGI qw(header cookie);
$cookie = cookie(...);
print header(-cookie => $cookie, -type=>'image/gif');
Search through the CGI.pm documentation for the "..." and take more
questions to beginners-cgi.
