This is precisely why you might see some (particularly C code) written
like:
if (1 == someVar) {...}
because the typo
if (1 = someVar) {...}
_would_ trigger an error.

I get a invalid Argument error when i try to opendir command on

I would have to check on those execution speed differences though I would
expect that they might not be important for the applications that I have in
mind.
Do you know if Ruby will generate code which can be used for CGI programs at
Web sites? That is another feature that made Perl look attractive.

I have a third browser that I am going to have to try in order to examine

they are not displaying correctly with certain browsers. Perhaps they will
need to be stored there with a preformatted text format.

I have been developing computer programs in a number of languages for quite
a few years. And it usually does not take me too long to shift from one to
another for simple applications. But I found it to be difficult to get
started with Perl and still have quite a bit to learn. And my feeling is
that if I could not learn it right away with all of my programming
experience then many other people would probably have trouble. I am not
saying that it is not a good language but only that it does not appear to be
one where you can install it and then never having seen it before just sit
down and immediately start writing simple programs which will open and close
files etc.

Has anyone suggested the llama book? That might be the fastest way to
learn the language. Some might argue that with your background in
programing that the llama book is a bit slow, but I have been
programming in higher level languages for years, and I found the llama
book useful as I started using Perl.

You have had this answer: it can be done but it is difficult. You
would be better off using VBscript and cscript.exe. Now go away.

This will work even if the string doesn't end in a newline:
s/^(.*)\n/$1 /s
or
s/\n(?=[^\n]*$)/ /

to suggest the same column. This question couldn't be a better fit for

I hesitated answering this earlier this week because I would have
thought you'd get a more definitive answer than what I can give, but...
I *thought* that Win32::Lanman was going to be updated with new routines
that handled AD calls. Try looking at http://Jenda.Krynicky.cz/perl for
that. I used Win32::Lanman on a huge Perl scripting project at a
Fortune 50 company 2 years ago that had AD tie-ins through
Win32::Lanman, but full AD functionality wasn't there at that time.
For LDAP access, use Net::LDAP. Net::LDAP will allow you to work with
AD through its LDAP (port 389) interface.

Subject: Need help reading a perl regexp - someone clue me?
Message-Id: <A0aUb.12559$XF6.244308@typhoon.sonic.net>
I've got a "canned" regexp I'm trying to analyze that I can't quite
follow due to one of the constructs used in it. Can anyone
translate/verify my translation for me?
Here's the segment that's throwing me (It's a very small sub-section of
a rather large and complex regexp - We're talking something on the order
of 300+ characters worth of "rather large and complex")
[a-zA-Z]{2}[.,\;:?%!&+^~`'\$*=\#|013467\(\)\[\]\{\}<>"][a-zA-Z]{2}
Now, if I'm reading rightly, and I'm not totally hopeless as far as my
understanding of perl regexps goes, this should be looking to match "any
two letters followed by pretty much any punctuation mark (including
parens, braces, and brackets of all flavors, but (seemingly) excluding
the "bar" (AKA "OR") character) or any of the digits 0, 1, 3, 4, 6, or
7, followed by any two letters.
How far off base am I with that interpretation?
Should I be ignoring any usual "special meaning" of the 'bar' character
when it appears as part of a square-bracketed set, and therefore taking
the overall regexp to mean that the "bar" character *IS NOT* being
excluded or used in its "special" capacity?

What happened when you tested it?
What you are calling a "sqare-bracketed set" is a character class, and
the answer is yes.

If this is XML, as it appears to be, you might do better parsing and get
better overall mileage from using XML::Simple or one of its close cousins.
(Wondering if this is the "Ram" that *I* know. If so, I hope you are

It's not a string, it's a regular expression, and it does match over
multiple lines.

And my suggestion does that perfectly well.
Have you began to study perldoc perlre yet? You'd better do so right

I'd follow the suggestion offered by Chris Olive - use an XML module to
parse your data. It will save you lots of time and effort - and reduce
the amount of "mistakes" made in parsing. Right now, if someone changes
the format of the file, you'll have to go through a similar type exercise
again in the future.
Again, it's just a suggestion :-)
