Announcement: "What Emacs lisp modules can help with programming Perl"
Preface
Emacs is your friend if you have to do anything comcerning software
development: It offers plug-in modules, written in Emacs lisp
(elisp) language, that makes all your programmings wishes come
true. Please introduce yourself to Emacs and your programming era
will get a new light.
Where to find Emacs/XEmacs
o Unix:
http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/emacs.html
http://www.xemacs.org/
o Unix Windows port (for Unix die-hards):
install http://www.cygwin.com/ which includes native Emacs 21.x.
and XEmacs port
o Pure Native Windows port
http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/windows/ntemacs.html

Emacs Perl Modules
Cperl -- Perl programming mode
http://www.cpan.org/modules/by-authors/id/ILYAZ/cperl-mode/
http://math.berkeley.edu/~ilya/software/emacs/
by Ilya Zakharevich
CPerl is major mode for editing perl files. Forget the default
`perl-mode' that comes with Emacs, this is much better. Comes
standard in newest Emacs.
TinyPerl -- Perl related utilities
http://tiny-tools.sourceforge.net/
If you ever wonder how to deal with Perl POD pages or how to find
documentation from all perl manpages, this package is for you.
Couple of keystrokes and all the documentaion is in your hands.
o Instant function help: See documentation of `shift', `pop'...
o Show Perl manual pages in *pod* buffer
o Grep through all Perl manpages (.pod)
o Follow POD references e.g. [perlre] to next pod with RETURN
o Coloured pod pages with `font-lock'
o Separate `tiperl-pod-view-mode' for jumping topics and pages
forward and backward in *pod* buffer.
o Update `$VERSION' variable with YYYY.MMDD on save.
o Load source code into Emacs, like Devel::DProf.pm
o Prepare script (version numbering) and Upload it to PAUSE
o Generate autoload STUBS (Devel::SelfStubber) for you
Perl Module (.pm)
TinyIgrep -- Perl Code browsing and easy grepping
[TinyIgrep is included in Tiny Tools Kit]
To grep from all installed Perl modules, define database to
TinyIgrep. There is example file emacs-rc-tinyigrep.el that shows
how to set up dattabases for Perl5, Perl4 whatever you have
installed
TinyIgrep calls Igrep.el to to do the search, You can adjust
recursive grep options, set search case sensitivity, add user grep
options etc.
You can find latest `igrep.el' module at
<http://groups.google.com/groups?group=gnu.emacs.sources> The
maintainer is Jefin Rodgers <kevinr <AT> ihs.com>.
TinyCompile -- To Browse grep results in Emacs *compile* buffer
TinyCompile is a minor mode for *compile* buffer from where
you can collapse unwanted lines or shorten file URLs:
/asd/asd/asd/asd/ads/as/da/sd/as/as/asd/file1:NNN: MATCHED TEXT
/asd/asd/asd/asd/ads/as/da/sd/as/as/asd/file2:NNN: MATCHED TEXT
-->
cd /asd/asd/asd/asd/ads/as/da/sd/as/as/asd/

Message-Id: <oYudnSgD5KYHTUDcRVn-sA@comcast.com>
All,
This is a bit hard to explain (and may be the reason I can't find an example
through google searching).
What I am looking for is a simple perl script that accepts input text, opens
a file on the server that is pipe delimitated and if that text matches
return a web page based on that match.
As in....
person enters: 123456
File on server has:
o2343r|twenty
123456|ten
234|eight
pally|two
So the script would display:
ten.html
ANY suggestions on where to look?
I would prefer a prewritten script I could hack and learn from but so far I
have spent 3 days searching and can't find anything close.
Thank you,
Billy

That is 'delimited'. However,

That's 'pipe separated'.
Anyway, your problem is poorly described (for example, is this a script
that will run from the command line or is it CGI? Is the data file on the
same machine as the script is running on? etc etc) and it looks like you
have not made an attempt to solve it.

That's the way to do it if the number for titlepageX.htm is the
same as the number for subjectpageX.htm. But if the titlepageX
numbers need to be consecutive even when the subjectpageX numbers
are out of order, use ++ and s///e. The /e modifier causes the
replacement part of s/// to be executed as a perl expression.
---------------------------
@lines = ('First line has subjectpage1.htm',
'subjectpage9.htm has been replaced the second',
'Former fourth line move up one subjectpage4.htm');
$currentpage = 81;
foreach (@lines) {
s/subjectpage\d+\.htm/'titlepage' . $currentpage++ . '.htm'/eg;
}
print join("\n",@lines),"\n";
---------------------------
First line has titlepage81.htm
titlepage82.htm has been replaced the second
Former fourth line move up one titlepage83.htm

I found this line of code
which was parsing the /etc/termcap file located on a UNIX system.
if (/(^|\|)${term}[:\|]/) {
I used the code from which this line was extracted and it successfully
parsed/extracted the termcap entry for my particulat type of terminal.
I realize that the "^" character is used to anchor the pattern match to
the start of a buffer and that enclosing part of a pattern match within
a set of parenthesis enables you to retrieve the value of the matched
segment and that "|" is used as an "logical or" operator, but given the
format of entries in the /etc/termcap file, I don't see how this pattern
is successfull. Can anyone out there give me some ideas on this ?

Actually, in this case the parentheses are almost certainly being used
simply to set precedence.
Let's spread that regex out a bit, which we can actually do in Perl code
thanks to the "x" modifier:
/ #start regex
( #begin group that's treated as a unit
^ #start of the string
| #logical or
\| #a literal pipe character
) #end group
#so in order to match, it has to either be at the beginning of the line
#or preceded by a pipe symbol
${term} #treat whatever is in the variable $term as part of the regex
[ #begin a character class
: #a literal colon
\| #a literal pipe character
] #end character class
#the character class matches any character that's either a colon or a
#pipe /x #end regex; the "x" lets us put in spaces and comments
So we know that whatever matches has to come either at the beginning of
the line or after a pipe symbol, and it has to end with a colon or a
pipe. The question is, what's in between? We can't know the answer
until we know what's in $term. I can guess (only guess) that it's
simply the name of your terminal and doesn't contain any regex special
characters. If that's the case, then the expression will match any line
in which the name of your terminal appears either at the beginning or
after a pipe, and is immediately followed by either a colon or a pipe.
But again, that's just a guess; if $term contrains any regex special
characters, they'll be treated the same as if they had been written out
in the regex.
The perlretut, perlrequick, perlre, and perlreref documents that come
with every Perl distribution are the definitive reference for Perl
regexes. Start with:
perldoc perlretut
and work your way through them.

Thanks to Sherm and bma3 for the help. I tried both setting the server
to process HTM and HTML through PHP and also the idea of using Perl to
generate a PHP file and then call it (calling in an <IMG tage didn't
seem to invokde the PHP process). These still didn't work (and I was
trying to stay away from generating files that would be accessed by an
HTML page).
So I came to my senses and decided to re-code the Perl process in PHP.
Only slight problem is needing to learn PHP -- but I needed to do that
anyhow. Also, the code is very similar to what I already had in Perl.
PHP seems like Perl for VB programmers.

Subject: shutdown of linux box from cron perl script
Message-Id: <ogkDd.10900$by5.8889@newssvr19.news.prodigy.com>
Sorry for the cross-posting, but I'm not sure if this question lands on the
perl side of things, or the linux side...
I have a perl script that runs once a minute to check various things. Under
one condition I want it to reboot the system. The command line equivalent
of "shutdown -r 10". I can get the script to work perfectly if I manually
run it from the command-line, "./myshutdownscript.pl". But when it runs
automatically from cron, the shutdown command seems to be ignored, though
all other output indicates the perl script is running fine.
Any suggestions?
Using: Debian Sarge, kernel 2.6, pentiumIII box, Perl 5.8.4
Thanks!

A reasonable assumption is that cron jobs run with different priviliges.
That is an OS issue. Please post in an appropriate forum.

I'd try posting to comp.os.linux.misc instead, and also would post a
short script which replicates the problem there. (Sinan's correct, in
that if the script runs from the command line, it's probably not a Perl
problem.)

Your PATH is probably different when running from cron. Try using

#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: due to the current flood of worm email banging on ruby, the smtp
server on ruby has been shut off until further notice.
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.
