This still gives you a warning about your character class syntax.
Adding the ^ changes nothing as both of your attempts match 'fooguy',
'foofooguy', 'foo...fooguy' (using literal "."s or "foo"s), and
'some-other-guy'. If this is what you want, use /guy/ and be done with
it. If you want to match one or more "foo"s followed by "guy", use
/(?:foo)+guy/. (The (?:) syntax does grouping without capturing the
substring.) If you want to capture the prefix to 'guy', use /(.*)guy/
(being sure to test the success of the regex before using $1). If you
want to capture the prefix to 'guy' which must be one or more "foo"s,
use /((?:foo)+)guy/. I don't think you've understood the answers you
got.

Message-Id: <3957C0F3.A2BD9BCA@americasm01.nt.com>
Hi,
I have a question about the stat function in Perl 5 when
it comes to symbolic links.
example:
make -> /opt/mce/tools/hppa/mctools/ae01/public/gnumake
I want to get the stat information for make.
This is what I'm doing,
my @temp = stat 'make';
It returns the stat information for
/opt/mce/tools/hppa/mctools/ae01/public/gnumake
but I want the stat information for make.
Thanks,
Terrence.

The information that is being returned *is* the information for "make".
According to your example:
make -> /opt/mce/tools/hppa/mctools/ae01/public/gnumake
make is just a symbolic link to gnumake. There is no "make" per say,
"make" is just a pointer to "gnumake". If you want the information on
the symbolic link, we'll both have to wait for one of the gurus to
answer your post.

Subject: Read file after writing it?
Message-Id: <8j8ejd$tf6$1@nnrp1.deja.com>
Hi,
I am writing a perl cgi script that writes a file to a directory, and
immediately (within the same script) opens and reads files that are in
the same directory.
I close the file after writing it, But when I try to read the file
later in the script, the open fails.
However after the script ends, the file can be opened without errors.
I tried putting a sleep() after closing the newly written file, but I
still can not open it later in the script.
I'm using ActivePerl with Apache.
Any Ideas?
Thanks in advance.

well, some code would be helpful.
do you open the file with
open FILE, "file" or die "cannot open file: $!";
and maybe
close FILE or die "cannot close file: $!";

Subject: regex - slurp file and extract email addresses
Message-Id: <3957A43C.377C4E4E@uptimeresources.net>
I've been given a file with company profiles (name, phone, address,
email etc). I need to extract the email addresses from this file and
save them to another file. I'm not very familiar with the syntax for
regular expressions. Would someone check my expression and tell me if I
am on the right track?
$address =~ /^\s+/\Q@\E/\s+$/
This seems wrong since it could start at the first whitespace in the
file and continue to the first whitespace after the first email address.
Then do the same thing to every email address after that.
How do I tell perl to start checking at the whitespace closest to the
front of "@" and stop at the whitespace closest to the back of "@"?

If there file is in free format, there isn't much you can do, as you
will have no idea where an email address might start, and where it
will end. Even newlines can be part of an email address.
If there is a specific format of said file, use the format to parse
the file and extract the information.

You'd use \S, but what does "closest whitespace in front and at the back
of @" have to do with email addresses? Addresses can contain whitespace,
and can be delimited by other things than whitespace.

What address does that find for my friends, fred and barney? This line

Don't make up your own wrong rules for e-mail addresses; use the specs.

i did try it .. and no .. it doesn't compile .. that's why I am asking

I haven't run across email addresses that contain whitespace .. that
doesn't mean they can't .. it just means it's not usual.
whitespace/something/@/something/whitespace is the best I could come up

Open Invitation:
MP3.com http://www.mp3.com will be hosting the San Diego Perl Mongers
meeting being held on JUNE 28, 2000 at 7:00pm. Any Perl programmer in
the San Diego area is welcome to attend.
MP3.com is nearly a billion-dollar online corporation that uses Perl
as it's primary programming language. Their site has hundreds of
thousands of unique visitors a day. They use Intel based hardware
systems with duel 500mhz (or better) processors, 512 megs of RAM,
running Linux and Solaris.
MySQL is their primary database for all the live sites. They use
Oracle and MS SQL in certain specific business applications.
MP3.com uses Apache exclusively for serving all pages on their site.
Again, Perl is their primary programming language and C is used for
very specialize purposes. Mod_perl is used for most CGI's.
At the meeting, MP3.com engineers will be speaking and answering
questions about how they use Perl, Mod_perl, Apache and MySQL in such
a robust environment. It should be very enlightening. Food and
drinks will be provided along with cool MP3.com prizes.
If you would like to attend the meeting, please RSVP Garrett Casey at
canetguy@home.com or adms1@cts.com
The San Diego Perl Mongers http://SanDiego.pm.org is going strong with

This would be most easily done via cron from UNIX. Check out the man pages
for cron and crontab:
man cron
man crontab
A not so eleagant solution could also be done by having the script sleep()
for a long time (24 hours?) and then have it do its thing and go back to
sleep.

Then it is an issue with the web server that would arise whatever language

this print's a \

this print's a '

the 2-char sequence \\ yields a single \ char
the 2-char sequence \\ yields another single \ char
the 2-char sequence \" yields the two character sequence \"
In a single quoted string, backslashes are only special when
the come before a backslash or a single quote.
They are not special (they stand for themselves) when
followed by any other character.
That is, they are only "consumed" by the quoting operator
when they precede one of those two chars.

You're using single quotes. Look up what perlop has to say about

Worked fine for me. In fact, I cut-and-pasted your code right in with
no problems. This was Perl 5.005_03, but I imagine it would work just

Just like the previous msg suggested; check the return value from
unlink and see what is the reason it fails; if it is permissions, You
can try Win32::File::SetAttributes() so see if You can set them to be
able to unlink. Hope this helps.

Does anybody know where I can find a free ISP who will allow me to run C

Subject: What's the email string limit?
Message-Id: <8j8ci4$ru3$1@nnrp1.deja.com>
I send email either by using NET::SMTP or by piping
to /usr/lib/sendmail. The goal is to send email to as many people at
one shot as possible since I have about 700 users.
Let's say I use the SMTP module. What's the limit to the number of
elements in @email:
$smtp->to(@email);
Or if I pipe to sendmail. What's the string length for $email:
open MAIL, "| /usr/lib/sendmail $email" or die "$!";
I'm using Perl 5.004_04 on Solaris 2.6 for Sparc. Thanks for any advice.

I feel unclean saying this, just like I did right after installing
the module, but you may want to look at Mail::BulkMail in the CPAN.

autosplit.ix is created by AutoSplit - you can read about it in detail
in the manpage for that module and its purpose is described in the
AutoLoader manpage. Essentially the file contains forward declarations
of the packages subroutines that will be loaded on demand by AutoLoader
and is necessary for the operation of that module. If the documentation
for perl2exe does not describe how you might remedy this problem then
you might report it as a bug to the vendors of perl2exe.

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.

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.
