<0> mauke: I'd get one of my immediate topic were i to disagree.
<1> wsmith: I don't think so.
<2> (abstract algebra)++
<1> wsmith: At least, I never do.
<3> Can anyone point to an ok toturial of using gettext in a perl program? I think I know the basic syntax, but I don't know how to generate the mo-files
<4> google/
<4> ?
<3> I tried that, mostly just came up with rpms of it and source repositories
<4> -rpm ?
<2> have you tried the gettext info manual?
<3> ah, no. I'll look at it
<2> You have no idea how to do X, but you DO NOT READ THE MANUAL?
<5> hey... I've got two related questions. (1) is there any better or more featureful module for keeping track of "things present", rather than just keeping a hash of keys set to 1? (2) is there any algorithmnically better way to see if two such hashes share a key (yes == some key shared, no == none) besides looping over the keys of one of them?
<3> integral: The info manual didn't cross my mind. I already tried the manpage and perldoc
<2> moron.
<3> heh, the standard friendly response I see
<1> ningu: A hash is a pretty standard and efficient way, so that's probably your best bet.
<2> info has been around for decades. _decades_. I mean it's the standard GNU replacement for manpages.
<6> hi - i want to use i18n for my perl scripts. how can i create the needed po files?
<2> estel: info gettext.
<7> I hate info.
<8> NOds
<7> HATE
<2> I guess emacs weenies like it *sigh*
<2> at least debian policy is man pages for everything
<8> I am an emacs weenies and I hate it.
<7> ningu: What shortcoming do you percieve in using hashes?
<9> Yaakov: ningu clearly doesn't understand hashes as evidenced by his second question
<2> They're not a high-level set library
<2> I really wish all of GHC's hier. libs were available in perl, and all of CPAN in haskell, on the whole the two are non-intersecting
<10> integral: is anyone working on a non-platform-specific cpan?
<9> sili: you mean like freepan?
<9> sdakota: you have my condolences
<11> Did anyone here ever use Games::3D?
<11> I'd like to see a Perl program using Games::3D
<12> sdakota i have one billion nigerian dollars in escrow and i need someone to help launder it
<2> the problem is that freepan and 6pan (or whatever it's called) haven't got anywhere...
<10> PerlJam: dunno let me see
<10> PerlJam: i guess like freepan, minus the part where is ****s
<11> Jetpack ^_^
<13> I have a string that is "\\Server\share" and i need to do a s// to make that into "\\\\Server\\share"
<14> File::stat->mode returns an array with one element with something like "17407" does that number need a bitwise operator conversion on it?
<11> Jetpack: Want me to write a script for that? (A)
<13> i haven't had much luck so far :-(
<12> sdakota yes but first i require a deposit of 100k USD :P
<13> nm, i got it
<11> hey gurus
<11> what about making some PerlSoft website
<11> all programs etcetera are placed on that...
<11> all handy programs that can actually be used...
<4> ala cpan/scripts ?
<4> ala freshmeat language search for 'perl' ?
<15> sdakota I think that kitchen just sank that idea...
<11> hmm
<11> no, not cpan for scripts...
<11> just real programs
<11> things that can actually be used
<11> not just a small scripty
<15> you mean command line / moron ready?
<16> lol
<13> If I have a string that holds literally two back slashes, so it's "\\", literally. Let's call this string $str, if i do `smblcinet $str`, will smbclinet think that it got one backslash, or two?
<7> perl -wle '$str="\\\\"; print `echo $str`'
<17> it'll get one because of the shell
<7> Demonstrated by the one-liner above.
<7> NAUGHTY SHELL
<18> eva: $str="\\\\"; print `echo $str`
<18> eval: $str="\\\\"; print `echo $str`
<19> joey__: Return: 1
<20> eval: my $str = '\\'; print $str,"\n";
<19> Alchemy: \ Return: 1
<21> hey guys, I am a newbie at programming perl. I am trying to write a script that could automate adding users to my cyrus imap server. To add users, I need to communicate through a program called cyradm. Where can I look to find information on using perl to do I/O with a specific program?
<17> perl -we '$str = "\\\\"; print `echo \Q$str`'
<7> MAWK
<7> (not you)
<13> mauke: to a s//, how is this interpreted s/\\/\\\\/, is that "replace 1 backslash with 2" or "replace 2 backslashes with 4"?
<22> why does this match: "foo.cgi" =~ /^.+?(?!\.cgi)$/;
<17> rutski89: 1 with 2
<23> re
<13> mauke: ty :-0
<13> ** :-)
<7> HELLO MAUKE
<24> eid: Try this: print "Match: $1\n" if "foo.cgi" =~ /^.+?(?!\.cgi)$/
<17> re
<24> If you want it to work place the "\." before the negative look-ahead
<17> bynari: no capturing groups in pattern
<24> What do you mean?
<17> $1 isn't set by this regex match
<24> Oh
<24> Oops
<24> eid: Try this: print "Match: $1\n" if "foo.cgi" =~ /^(.+?)(?!\.cgi)$/
<22> bynari, thanks
<17> eid: it matches because (?!\.cgi)$ means "not followed by .cgi AND followed by end-of-string"
<14> is there a way to convert an octal to decimal?
<17> which is the same as $ alone
<17> bov: perldoc -f oct
<25> The perldoc for oct is at http://perldoc.perl.org/functions/oct.html
<24> It matches because .+? slurps the .cgi
<22> aha. and .+? eats up everything? even though i got the "?" ?
<24> look-aheads and look-behinds aren't part of the match
<24> That's why you need the \. outside the lookahead
<17> bynari: I don't get it
<22> ok
<17> (?!foo)$ is the same as $
<17> what does this have to do with \.?
<24> Try my code above, mauke
<24> You'll see why it's not working
<17> eval: "foo.cgi" =~ /^(.+?)(?!\.cgi)$/; $1
<19> mauke: Return: foo.cgi
<24> It's not the same as $ though
<17> eval: "foo.cgi" =~ /^(.+?)\.(?!cgi)$/; $1
<19> mauke: Return: "foo.cgi" =~ /^(.+?)\.(?!cgi)$/; $1
<17> bynari: why not?
<24> Well
<24> In this case it is, but that's because the .+ slurps
<17> it always is
<24> Try /.+?\.(?!cgi)$/
<24> That will not match file.cgi
<17> eval: "foo.cgi" =~ /^(.+?)\.(?!cgi)$/; $1
<19> mauke: Return: "foo.cgi" =~ /^(.+?)\.(?!cgi)$/; $1
<17> why does it do that?
<24> Look-aheads and look-behinds aren't actually part of the match
<24> If you use them in s/// for example they aren't touched
<24> So everything up until $ is slurped by the .+ regardless of the "?"
<17> bynari: it will not match because it doesn't match /.+?\.$/ either
<24> So then when it finishes its slurp it checks the look-ahead
<17> simply because the last character isn't .
<24> "If there's a .cgi, we fail"
<24> But all there is, is a \n
<26> bynari: them being in the match would kind of defeat the whole point;)
<24> or the end
<17> whatever, you're not making sense
<24> I'm making sense, you're just not understanding..
<24> Try this
<17> bynari: what is the difference between (?!foo)$ and $ ?
<24> "foo.bar" =~ /.+?\.(?!cgi)$/
<17> I tried it
<24> One will match everything and the other will not match if foo is at the end before the $
<17> bynari: wrong
<22> mauke, the thing is this: /.+$/ and /.+?$/ is the same thing - and since the negative look-ahead isn't included it's the same :P
<24> How am I wrong? Why does the code match then?
<24> Why does "file.cgi" not match and "file.bar" match?
<24> If I'm wrong
<17> eval: "file.bar" =~ /.+?\.(?!cgi$/ ? "matches" : "bzzt"
<19> mauke: Error: Unmatched ( in regex; marked by <-- HERE in m/.+?\.( <-- HERE ?!cgi$/ at (eval 124) line 1.
<17> eval: "file.bar" =~ /.+?\.(?!cgi)$/ ? "matches" : "bzzt"
<19> mauke: Return: bzzt
<17> <17> bynari: it will not match because it doesn't match /.+?\.$/ either
<17> <17> simply because the last character isn't .
