Writing to c.l.perl is a good start... Perl has very good docs. IMHO, they're better than Python's, specially for the examples. Also, starting with a book like "Learning Perl" is not bad and it might save you a lot of time with the basics and the semantics of the language. c.l.perl is very receptive and helpful. -- Jorge Godoy <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> "Quidquid latine dictum sit, altum sonatur." - Qualquer coisa dita em latim soa profundo. - Anything said in Latin sounds smart. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
