__init__(self)
(Constructor)

source code 
x.__init__(...) initializes x; see x.__class__.__doc__ for signature
Returns:
new empty dictionary

Overrides: dict.__init__
(inherited documentation)

stream(self, stream, chunk_size=65536, request=1)

source code 
if a controller function:
   return response.stream(file, 100)
the file content will be streamed at 100 bytes at the time

download(self, request, db, chunk_size=65536, attachment=True)

source code 
example of usage in controller:
   def download():
       return response.download(request, db)
downloads from http://..../download/filename

xmlrpc(self, request, methods)

source code 
assuming:
   def add(a, b):
       return a+b
if a controller function "func":
   return response.xmlrpc(request, [add])
the controller will be able to handle xmlrpc requests for the add function. Example:
   import xmlrpclib
   connection = xmlrpclib.ServerProxy('http://hostname/app/contr/func')
   print connection.add(3, 4)
