   This might be a little late, but I'd like to say that I also agree
with "la maggior parte della gente" that say "'in' a newsgroup" sounds
better than "'on' a newsgroup".  But you could also rephrase the quote
to say:

  > utterly stupid claim
  witty cmt
  - J. Random Hacker, "Re: Fred Mbogo" (posting to comp.foo.bar)


   But now that I've answered your linguistic question, can you answer
some of mine?

   How would I say, "I write programs in Perl"?  Do any of the
following choices sound right?  If not, how would you say it?

      "Scrivo programmi in Perl."
      "Scrivo programmi con Perl."
      "Scrivo dei programmi usando Perl."

   And how would I say, "I will write in Perl in May"?  Would any of
these be accurate?

      "Scrivero' un programma in Perl in maggio."
      "Scrivo in Perl a maggio."
      "Quando viene il maggio, scrivero' Perl."

   And can "Perl" be used as a verb?  For example, does the phrase
"Happy Perling!" have a translation?  My best guess would be:

      "Perlisci con felicita'!"
or maybe:
      "Perla felicemente!"

   And, finally, can "Perl" be used as an adjective (like "perlish" in
English)?.  Would the translation of "This program seems a bit
perlish" be "Questo programma mi sembra un po' perluto"?

   I know you probably weren't expecting these questions, Michele, but
I'm asking them to you because I always have a hard time saying to
Italians that I program in Perl (they seem to understand what I mean,
but I never kow what's correct).  As you know, prepositions like "to",
"at", "with", "in", and "on" are difficult to use correctly in another
language, so I'm hoping you can help me out here.

   Mille grazie,

   Jean-Luc Romano

Things must be really screwy if it's the 5.6.1 version complaining
about an error in a 5.8.2-specific directory.
