Hello,
I have two variables, $var1 and $var2 which I'd like to combine into a
single variable $var3 with a space in between. How should I do this?
I grant that sounds really, REALLY stupid.

yes. have you even read ANY docs or books on perl? this is too
fundamental to be just given a plain answer.
there are probably a zillion ways to do it. here are some dumber ones:
$var3 = sprintf '%s %s', $var1, $var2 ;
substr( $var3 = $var1, length $var1, 0, ' ' . $var2 ) ;
substr( $var3 = $var2, 0, 0, $var1 . ' ' ) ;
substr( $var3 = $var1 . $var2, length $var1, 0, ' ' ) ;
i leave it as an exercise for the group to find more dumb ways. lets see
how many we can come up with. the dumber the better.

also your code is neither -w nor strict. and your @ARGV parsing is very
simplistic with no defaults or checking.

^^ That's silly. Perl will use as much (or as little) as it takes.
Is it? I think making a limit is *very smart*. I wouldn't want getting
resource problems just because someone sends a very large file.

After searching Deja for an hour I beg a bone from the masters:
I would like to use "real html" files as templates. Would like to know
if anyone has a collection of regexes that might process the html
file to be able to print it via the slurp the $html variable style. ie:
open (TEMPLATE, "inkjet.htm") || die "Can't open inkjet.htm: $!";
while (<TEMPLATE>) {$html .= $_}
close(TEMPLATE) || die "Can't close inkjet.htm: $!";
$HTML =~ s/***/***/g; #<-- Some super fancy regexes here.
I could spend the time writing these but I'm sure someone might
throw me a bone here by sharing their collection.
ie: If there are prices on the page it will escape the $ on the price

Message-Id: <0091db33.3370c90f@usw-ex0108-059.remarq.com>
IPC::Shareable module will help you.
you can find IPC::Shareable in CPAN search.
http://search.cpan.org
Type 'IPC::Shareable' in Search text input box.
Here is examples.
<a cgi>-----------------
use IPC::Shareable;
tie (%H, 'IPC::Shareable', 'Test', { create => 'yes',
destroy => 'yes' } );
$H{'hello'} = 'world';
<b cgi>-----------------
use IPC::Shareable;
tie (%H, 'IPC::Shareable', 'Test', {create => 'yes',
destroy => 'yes' } );
print $H{'hello'}
------------------------
Another solution is saving parameters in server-side file.
It feels like cookie in server-side.
you can pass no hash but array around.
$query->save(FILEHANDLE);
$query = new CGI(INPUTFILE);
see CGI manpage for details.

Maybe this version is "currently working" but it still has no error
checking and therefore is bound to send more users back to the newsgroup
with questions as it has in the past. The script does not "use strict"
and has several things which could cause "-w" warnings but the main
thing it lacks is any error checking on its open statement. At the very
least, change this:
> $workbook = $xl_app->Workbooks->Open($xlfile);
To this:
my $workbook = $xl_app->Workbooks->Open($xlfile)
or die Win32::OLE->LastError();

Well, since everyone has been saying 'off topic' and then further
obscuring the point with mostly nonsense....
Encryption and password protected files are _not_ even remotely
attractive nor related to the users question.
If the dude is still reading this thread, go to www.apache.org if you
are using apache httpd and read about user authentication. You _don't_
need a Perl script to achieve this unless you just love the abuse of clpm.

A prototype equivalent? I don't think so, but I think you can
get something similar with a class method:
OBJECT->pretty_print @array;
should be identical in function to:
pretty_print OBJECT @array;
...where pretty_print is a method of the class to which OBJECT belongs.
But if you want the OBJECT token to be a filehandle, then you'll
have to get advice from someone better than I.
That's the only way I can see, but I'm terribly interested in the
answers from the real perl hackers in this group.

Administrivia:
The Perl-Users Digest is a retransmission of the USENET newsgroup
comp.lang.perl.misc. For subscription or unsubscription requests, send
the single line:
subscribe perl-users
or:
unsubscribe perl-users
to almanac@ruby.oce.orst.edu.
| NOTE: The mail to news gateway, and thus the ability to submit articles
| through this service to the newsgroup, has been removed. I do not have
| time to individually vet each article to make sure that someone isn't
| abusing the service, and I no longer have any desire to waste my time
| dealing with the campus admins when some fool complains to them about an
| article that has come through the gateway instead of complaining
| to the source.
To submit articles to comp.lang.perl.announce, send your article to
clpa@perl.com.
To request back copies (available for a week or so), send your request
to almanac@ruby.oce.orst.edu with the command "send perl-users x.y",
where x is the volume number and y is the issue number.
For other requests pertaining to the digest, send mail to
perl-users-request@ruby.oce.orst.edu. Do not waste your time or mine
sending perl questions to the -request address, I don't have time to
answer them even if I did know the answer.
