-Returns a PSGI $writer object that has two methods, write and close.  You can
-close over this object for asynchronous and nonblocking applications.  For

+Returns an instance of L<Catalyst::Response::Writer>, which is a lightweight
+decorator over the PSGI C<$writer> object (see L<PSGI.pod\Delayed-Response-and-Streaming-Body>).
+
+In addition to proxying the C<write> and C<close> method from the underlying PSGI
+writer, this proxy object knows any application wide encoding, and provides a method
+C<write_encoded> that will properly encode your written lines based upon your
+encoding settings.  By default in L<Catalyst> responses are UTF-8 encoded and this
+is the encoding used if you respond via C<write_encoded>.  If you want to handle
+encoding yourself, you can use the C<write> method directly.
+
+Encoding only applies to content types for which it matters.  Currently the following
+content types are assumed to need encoding: text (including HTML), xml and javascript.
+
+We provide access to this object so that you can properly close over it for use in
+asynchronous and nonblocking applications.  For example (assuming you are using a supporting
+server, like L<Twiggy>:
