Comments:

<0> what do you use
<1> even my Trillian does tab completion
<2> Ally: epic4
<3> irssi
<4> irssi
<3> Ally: Yours probably does it though
<2> irssi can be extended with perl, yes?
<5> pravus: yes
<0> dabreegster i dont have the colon
<2> i might need to try it... epic's perl support is for the lose
<1> so type it
<3> Ally: It's probably configurable
<2> Ally: , and - are also fairly common
<1> speaking of tab completion, does Komodo offer it?
<3> pravus- looks annoying though
<0> you guys are very helpful



<2> dabreegster- no it doesn't... well sorta ;)
<1> it's because - offers no symmetry
<2> Merculis: ?
<1> pravus- that
<1> pravus: versus that
<2> not seeing it
<3> Merculis, just looks weird
<1> : is symmetrical...is it not?
<1> while - is a bit annoying...like me
<2> Merculis: not any more so that - to me
<1> ok
<1> well it was just my hypothesis
<2> i want a full write-up of your conclusions by morning... with pretty graphs and at least 3 citations
<1> lol
<1> hmm
<1> maybe I can convince my boyfriend to do it
<1> can I turn in other ppl's work?
<2> but of course... that is how the real world works anyways
<1> precisely
<1> riczho: forgive me for asking, but what is LWP?
<6> ok its making sense now, thanks :)
<7> Paladin: Thanks for the link, that helped a lot : )
<2> Merculis: Lib WWW Perl - routines for handling web (and other) requests
<1> ah
<5> samasama: welcome
<1> pravus: I guess I didn't get to that section in the book yet
<2> Merculis: what book?
<8> anyone know when the brazil/france world cup game is?
<1> Saturday
<2> too bad there will be tons of racing to watch...
<9> racing?
<2> f1
<1> pravus: well, I am tagteaming Beginning Perl along with Learning Perl
<5> Merculis: both good choices.
<2> Merculis: not sure LWP is in either of... i haven't actually read them myself
<9> no, beginning perl is out of fashion now that merlyn is a regular here
<1> Paladin: that's good to know!
<10> GumbyBRAIN: god this cartoon is stupid
<1> jpeg: yeah, merlyn read me the riot act on beginning perl
<11> This is in the cartoon.
<9> Merculis: if you really want to get him going, say you just finished perl for dummies
<2> is merlyn against beginning perl or something?
<1> jpeg: actually I did something a little different and I told him I bought SAMS: Learn Perl in 21 days
<9> pretty much.
<2> what would he have against it?
<9> Merculis: sweet ;0
<9> pravus: I'm sure he doesn't like the content 100% or something, but basically what we hear about when he doesn't like a book is that the author is a douchebag
<1> pravus: he doesn't like that Cozen's guy is what I gathered. plus he agreed with my points on how in Beginning Perl, the author (Cozen's) often proceeds with topics as if the reader is already aware of them
<9> or that he was contracted to write the book and it fell through, so they hired some schmuck
<10> everyone send hate mail to the scifi channel, they've gone astray
<2> ahh.. so it's one of those things
<10> right now they have wrestling on
<0> im too stupid to upgrade my firmware
<2> i ought to jibe him and recommend it to everyone
<2> Ally: how's that? i would figure it would be easy to do...
<9> can't hurt
<2> simcop2387: wrestling with lasers?
<0> pravus= im not sure wich i should download really
<10> pravus: no the ****ty scripted kind where guys are slamming eachother [to the floor]
<2> Ally: you should just be able to match model and version numbers



<2> simcop2387: but with lasers, right? i mean... it's sci-fi... there has to be lasers... or a werewolf... something
<10> pravus: nope
<1> whoa, wrestling on scifi...ouch
<10> Merculis: i'm sending them hate mail about it
<0> how do i search inside a varible for another varible
<1> to be honest though...most of the geeks I knew back when I was a kid started out on wrestling. it's like the soap opera of sports.
<0> like i have some html in one varible and im searching it
<1> :-)
<1> hehe
<10> Merculis: where do you live that geeks watch a bunch of guys slamming eachother [to the floor] as a rule of thumb
<1> simcop2387: Midwest US, but I am 27 now, so times have changed. I am sure they don't do that anymore.
<9> pre-geeks.
<9> where is woh? western ohio?
<1> yep
<1> you got it
<12> How do I install this whole bunch of modules: http://search.cpan.org/dist/MailTools/
<12> There is about 15 different modules there..with CPAN there must be a way to install them all at once
<13> Just install MailTools?
<12> Well its just an example but yeah
<13> (As they're all in one package, if you just install one of them, you get the rest for free)
<1> why can't there be Perl video tutorials?
<12> I have a list of a whole bunch of sets of modules that some software I need to install
<1> :P
<12> oh
<12> ok
<13> Merculis: coz all the perl-gods are ugly as all sin :)
<12> They list them by the names of the set not by the names of the modules
<12> which ****s :P
<1> Woosta: good point.
<0> anyone know the code for searching inside a varible for another varible?
<9> grep?
<9> =~?
<12> hehe
<0> ok ill look that up
<12> man grep
<8> Ally: string in list: grep
<13> if ($another_var =~ /$one_var/)
<8> Ally: string in string: regex or index()
<14> is there any perl module that can calculate distance between two canadian postal codes?
<13> if (index($another_var,$one_var) >= 0)
<8> bhearsum: not that I've ever heard of.
<8> http://search.cpan.org/author/JETTRA/Geo-Coder-Canada-0.01/Coder/Canada/Canada.pm
<13> bhearsum: there's modules that do GCD, but you'd need something that mapped a postal code to a lat/lon
<8> that might be helpful, bhearsum
<14> Woosta: whats GCD?
<8> "Perl extension for getting longitude and latitude cordinates given a Canadian address."
<14> hm
<8> bhearsum: once you have two points of lat. & long., you can find the distance between them
<9> tag had worked up a way to do that last year, I think
<10> GumbyBRAIN: wtf is wrong with scifi?
<11> How wrong is that with a random sampling of windows business apps.... I was pretty hard to insult anyone here.
<8> Geo::Distance, for example
<14> i just found Geo::Distance
<14> cool
<14> looks like i can do it with those two together
<9> using pythagoras' theorem and fudging it
<14> i wonder if this will work for a detail level of 2km
<15> there are different algos that suit different distances
<14> cool
<14> i can probably figure it out from here
<15> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geoid
<16> huh
<16> I worked up a way to do what?
<13> GCD == great circle distance
<16> jpeg: I worked up a way to do what last year?
<10> GumbyBRAIN: having trouble trying to sleep, counting sheep but running out
<11> But to be out.
<14> as time ticks by....
<12> Anyone here have problems installing perl modules using CPAN in webmin
<12> It shows them all downloading but just sits there when the last one is downloaded...like its doing something
<12> but it isn't, I dont htink
<12> think even
<17> Well
<17> I cant download with CPAN
