Go to your local library and ask for "Learning Perl," (Schwartz and Christiansen, O'Reilly & Associates, aka "The Llama book"). It's in the second edition now, but the first will get you up to speed in a week or two. After that, use the web sites that have been suggested until you can afford "Programming Perl, 2nd edition" (Wall, Chritiansen & Schwartz, O'Reilly & Associates, aka "The camel book"). I know a lot of people who write perl for a living, and every last one of them learned from the llama book, and uses the camel book as a preferred reference. If there's no way for you to get ahold of "Learning Perl," then get back to me, and maybe I can loan you my copy of the first edition for the price of postage. Ed

Check out http://www.mcp.com/personal/ A pretty good selection of (fairly) current books. The only problem I have is that they are heavy on Micro$tuff. However, there are several Linux and Unix titles, too. I use wwwoffle to grab a whole book at a time, then read at my leisure. All you need is an e-mail address.

Perl Instruction
Does anyone know if there are any good sites on the web for learning perl? I really want to learn it soon, but don't have any extra money to buy any books right now. Thanks, chris
