You will all be so, so sorry. This may not be a whole night's topic but it's always bugged me and I'm curious if I'm alone: I would be interested to hear how you use perl modules as a programmer. I do a fair amount of Perl programming and use my scripts at different customer sites. There is nothing I find more frustrating than a script with a dozen dependencies which themselves have several dependencies. I'll admit it's been a while since I used the CPAN module but it was only of moderate help the last time I used it. Ultimately what I do is try to meet my needs without modules and limit my use to necessities. Is there a trick I'm missing or are modules just difficult and that's the way it is? -morgan ___________________________________________________________________________ Philadelphia Linux Users Group -- http://www.phillylinux.org Announcements - http://lists.phillylinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug-announce General Discussion -- http://lists.phillylinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
