In fact, I've already told Dan in private email (for which he flamed me back) that his postings are outside the c.l.perl charter. If someone is asking for a Perl solution to a problem, they don't want to be told it can be done in C (they probably already know that). Please keep off-charter postings off this newsgroup! Just another Perl hacker, that'd rather be spending time finishing The Book than arguing with someone without common sense, -- /=Randal L.

Does this mean that perl-lovers are going to stop posting perl solutions to questions in comp.unix.questions and comp.unix.shell? I hope not! Please chill out and remember that it is appropriate and desirable for every unix tool to include all the others. Les Mikesell les@chinet.chi.il.us
