Re: Perl version 5.8 and 5.10

Hi, What is your use case, maybe it can be solved by adding "use v5.8;" or "use v5.10;" at the top? It is rarely needed to install such an old version of perl, unless it's for testing compatibility, but then we should aim higher than v5.8. v5.16 is the oldest version supported by toolchain,

Re: Code or tools

nonetheless. The reason for that vote is that you read the code so many more times than you write it. In fact you keep reading it while you write it, even before you forget what's in it and have to re-read it yet again to refresh your mind on how it works and what it does specifically. Then your

Re: My progress in Perl

Hi, Learning Perl is a great book, but anyone looking for an alternative should check out Minimal Perl by Tim Maher. I've found this book to be a little clearer and with more practical examples. I've used Perl on windows for years, as it is far more powerful and portable than Batch and
