<0> woo!
<1> i dont know what squinting is but if its anything like squirting.. ew.
<2> ...
<0> this is weird, I just wrote a perl program, to see if I could, and it has exactly the same number of characters as the ruby version
<3> b0at: Did you just eye-fart?
<2> No.
<4> Heeyyyyy... ew... you're not so wrong.
<2> joey__: Yes. This will always be the case.
<3> joey__: Then you probably did it the ruby way.
<5> perl -Mforks -le '$t = threads->new(sub{ while(1){sleep 3; print "ping"} }); sleep 10; print "done"'
<0> boat,ew73:you mean I wrote my perl code like ruby
<0> ?
<6> I'm pondering a static Cl***::DBI like thing.
<2> No, I'm just trying to mess with your head.
<3> Not me, I enjoy cheese.
<6> Generating cl***es long before compile time, rather than doing everything during runtime.



<0> anyway
<3> GumbyBRAIN: He's trying to run, hack off his knees.
<7> ew73: "So it is run by the side of his to be a good one for you dear, you know he's the man" --- "mann? - _Captain_ mann?" here screamed some little foundation in fact.
<6> Which should result in much easier overloading of behaviour - just change the templates to your liking, rather than subcl***ing cl***es whose names are hardcoded anyway.
<4> Ugh
<4> Hmm
<4> Now how do I get Windows to fork?
<5> DigitDuke: by upgrading to linux
<4> I wish I could
<8> Win32::Process
<5> DigitDuke: it's problematic to fork in windows land.
<2> Things like Proc::ForkFunc appear, to my untrained eye, to do what they mean to on Windows. Maybe they use threads. I don't know.
<8> hmpf.
<6> The thing annoying me most about CDBI is its iterators. I want plural methods to return a number of elements in scalar context. However, it has iterators and there's no easy way to change that globally without messing with CDBI itself.
<5> DigitDuke: it might be better to just learn how to use POE.
<8> which uses Win32::Process under the hood for Wheel::Run.
<2> Is that like a wing and a prayer?
<4> Okay, cfedde -- sincere thanks for all your help :-)
<5> groucho++
<3> A smoke and a pancake?
<2> Shave and a shoeshine?
<8> its late and i can't be ****ed.
<8> see you kids tomorrow.
<8> GumbyBRAIN: good night
<7> BinGOs: "what's in the hope of hearing that night had found (to him a night of the truth of the enclosure.
<9> what is .plx?
<2> It's an extension some people use for sample or "non-library" files, possibly a holdover from before .pm
<9> oh, so really .pl is PRETTY MUCH better
<10> i've got over 10,000 messages total in my mailbox
<2> The extension doesn't matter.
<2> Except perhaps on Windows and MacOS
<11> hi
<10> er 25,000
<2> And even then, it isn't a big deal
<11> has someone experienced problems with Cl***::Std?
<3> Ahem. I hate xsl.
<3> ALMOST as much as javascript.
<10> xsl can use ECMA script
<12> i wouldn't have minded that lisp-ml type stuff whose name i can't remember was accepted
<12> i guess the largest problem with that is that it doesn't transform into html without extra work
<13> i blame html
<13> for ****ing ***
<13> wiki's markups are much nicer
<13> now why didn't i think of that before jumping the gun and firing html
<14> linuxnohow: nice, lined up XD
<13> pkg_info -W /path/to/some/file
<13> mistell
<15> iank, dont diss the South Dakota
<16> hahaha dakota
<16> Gay cowboys and stuff.
<17> hello
<15> buu, your thinking of western SD, this is eastern
<16> SAME THING.
<16> Pissant tiny little states
<18> Can you do colors with print like you can with echo?
<18> example: echo -en "\\033[1;32m"
<19> yes, if your terminal supports it
<19> see also perldoc Term::ANSIColor



<20> Shaun-damit: they both just send the data to stdout. Neither one actually cares about colors.
<18> i tryed print "\\033[1;32m blah"; but nothing
<20> Shaun-damit: undouble the backslash
<19> it's \033, not \\033
<19> or \e
<20> Shaun-damit: otherwise you're just printing a backslash
<18> thankis
<16> Yay!
<20> Huevosplash!
<16> Really?
<20> really what? :P
<16> Huevo sokash?!
<14> splash!
<21> mmm goats
<21> perl needs to be the goat language, camels ****.
<22> $Botje->disembowel;
<23> yes, the black goat!
<22> goats aren't ugly enough
<20> $btj->disemvowel;
<2> h, my vwls
<22> Btj?
<19> http://unix.rulez.org/~calver/pictures/curves.jpg
<2> heh
<3> Does that mean when using emacs, you suddenly start learning multiple things at the same time, and then forgetting them?
<22> looks more like you turn into a Debian user
<3> apt-get remove emacs
<24> What is $ARGV, I know about the array @ARGV, but I accidently used $ARGV instead of $ARGV[0] and it worked.
<2> perldoc perlvar
<25> The perldoc for perlvar is at http://perldoc.perl.org/perlvar.html
<9> how is this website for a perl tutorial: http://tinyurl.com/altz4
<19> looks ok
<9> allright
<16> Why aren't you using beginning perl?
<9> because, i was looking around and i found that one, i also have the beginning perl on another tab
<20> eDhat: it crashes my browser
<2> What browser?
<24> Is there a built in variable for the current directory the user is in when the user runs the program?
<22> use Cwd;
<9> really?
<9> hobbs: what browser?
<20> b0at: a version of Konqy that really likes crashing
<2> heh
<9> what is the latest version of perl?
<20> eDhat: 5.8.8 stable
<9> i have 5.8 stable, is that old?
<26> eDhat: 5.8.what?
<9> 5.8.0
<26> eDhat: fairly old.. yes.. but usable..
<20> well obviously it's 8 revisions out of date :)
<20> eDhat: dates to about 2002
<27> what's the difference between die and exit?
<9> is there an easy way to upgrade, wihtout donwload the whole new perl 5.8.8, almost like downloading the packages i need?
<20> eDhat: yes, the package you need is called perl.
<19> jrix: exit exits. die throws an exception.
<27> other than that tho, the same
<27> ?
<9> hobbs: okay, but will that donwload a whole new perl, or will that just download the updates that i need?
<19> yes, except for the differences they're exactly equivalent
<16> eDhat: No, there is no easy way.
<20> eDhat: PERL IS THE UPDATE YOU NEED. You can't have half of perl.
<16> well, you could.
<16> But it would be hard to compile.
<9> how big is perl 5.8.8
<16> megs
<28> 5.8.8 megs
<9> yes
<20> eDhat: ask cpan
<23> it takes many seconds to download
<27> difference(s)<---as in more than one?
<19> jrix: please make sense
<19> this conversation is hurting my brane
<16> jrix: There are many differences. Die can write to STDERR, die can be caught, etc.
<20> jrix: That's like saying "what's the difference between return and fork?" The answer is, one returns and one forks
