Perl UNIX commands

2001-06-14 Thread John Joseph Roets

I found a site a while back which detailed a pursuit to develop Perl
commands to replace universal UNIX commands.
Thus, providing advanced benefits/features, such as more full regex matching
abilities, etc.
My problem:
I cannot now find this site.  I can't even remember how I came across it.
Might anyone here be aware of this site/group?  Please?

Thank you greatly indeed.

RE: Beginners Training books

2001-06-04 Thread John Joseph Roets

I picked up _Programming Perl_ v.3, and was at first worried.  It seems
though to be VERY thorough...
Am I missing much in not having _Learning Perl_?

Thank you.

Hi,
I would recommend O'Reilly's _Learning Perl_ wholeheartedly,
particularly if you're familiar with programming concepts already (such
as branching, looping, variable substitution, etc).  I've been a big fan
of that book since about 1995, having given my copies away several times
;)

Share and enjoy!
