You have already proven you don't know Perl, but now it turns

Intentional fallacy -- there's no necessary correlation between what
he *intends* to do and what he actually succeeds at doing. As noted,
Xah *intends* to use his expertise in Perl to teach Python to others.
All he's succeeding in doing is demonstrating his incompetence at
both. As for myself, I suspect it's just a cunning approach to Let's

I am curious, did you actually bother to read 'perldoc perlsub'?
... If a subroutine is called using the "&" form, the argument list
is optional, and if omitted, no @_ array is set up for the subroutine:
the @_ array at the time of the call is visible to subroutine instead.
This is an efficiency mechanism that new users may wish to avoid.
If you use the foo() form, you are not passing any arguments at all. That is
allright if the sub does not take any arguments, but would be a problem if
the sub needed arguments to do its job. Please read (or re-read) perldoc
perlsub in its entirety to understand why the &foo is useful only in very few
specific instances.

I didn't read all of it; it has more than 1300 lines.
But I tried to find, what Michele wanted to point me at.
English is not my native language.
Therefore reading (and understanding!) the docs is difficult for me and
takes a lot of time.

I did read that, but i didn't really understand why it should be
necessary to avoid this.

Well, I really tried, but things didn't get much clearer.
As far as I understand "new-style calls" enable subroutines which can
behave like built-in functions (which is beyond my scope for now).
Is that what you mean?
I'd appreciate if you could point me to a particular section of perlsub
to help me understand.
Thank you for your help.

You should spend as much time as needed.

Just a simple example:
#! perl
use strict;
use warnings;
sub mysub {
join ':', @_;
}
print mysub 'Drive', 'Directory', "\n";
print &mysub 'Drive', 'Directory', "\n";
I am not particularly inclined to spend a lot of time with this at this
point. Unless you _know_ that you need & for a specific reason, you are
better off not using it. Simple rule, really.

AFAIK, that is made possible with the use of prototypes.

Whereever you print the stuff, hardcoding a list of param/label pairs is
one way:
my @labels = (
[ clientname => 'Client Name' ],
[ agency => 'Agency' ],
[ homedate => 'Home Date' ],
[ a1 => 'A1' ],
[ a2 => 'A2' ],
);
for (@labels) {
if ( $query->param( $$_[0] ) ) {
print "$$_[1]: ", $query->param( $$_[0] ), "\n";
}
}

Well, so what? The user loses his file. Big deal. Had he typed

he would have lost his file too.
If someone is stupid (and knowledged) enough to create a file called
">file.txt", it's HIS responsibility to make sure the file won't get

Yes, but that's due to a mistake on the user's part, not cat's. Had the user
correctly typed
$ cat ">file.txt"
instead, "cat" would have behaved correctly. In the case of a Perl script
that uses "open FILE, $filename", there would be *no* correct way for the
user to run the script. The file gets overwritten even if the user
correctly quotes it when he runs the script.

IMO, the reason for the convention is to avoid collisions
with built-in functions:
open file, 'file.txt' or die "...";
works fine today, but will break when you update your perl version
and it introduces a brand-new function named file().
In other words, the convention is a consequence of filehandles
being sigil-less, hence confusing the parser when the FH is
a function call rather than a bareword.
Or, maybe it would just confuse the programmer that his untouched
program stopped working when he upgraded perl...
So, you only need upper case to get the parser to apply the
semantic that you intend with filehandles, you don't need
to resort to that trickery with lexical filehandles.

Naturally - that's not how you use "use". Have a look at the docs for the
function you're using:
perldoc -f use
The questions of how to get modules, how to find out what ones you have, and
how to install them are all answered in the FAQ. Have a look at:
perldoc -q module

But you don't feel like sharing the error text with us?
$ perl -e 'use LWP 5.64'
$
Not sure what you're trying to do, but it doesn't generate an
error. There's more code isn't there? Please show us a
small program that generates this error, and the output from a
run of it. (Also, platform you're using, perl version).

Scratch that part. You *can* specify a minimum version number for a module -

OTOH, the missing semi-colon at the end of the line above would cause
problems if it appeared in a source file.
The OP would benefit from reading the posting guidelines posted here

The output is not being paused. You have told perl to read all the lines
output by ldapsearch and then print them rather than reading the output
of ldapsearch line by line.
> And this process will cost about 10 mins.
> How to control the cgi stdout buffer?
I am not sure exactly what you are asking, but, either:
http://www.stonehenge.com/merlyn/LinuxMag/col39.html
or
#! perl
$| = 1;
use strict;
use warnings;
open my $ls, 'ls -l . |'
or die "Cannot open pipe to ls: $!";
while(<$ls>) {
print;
sleep 1;
}
close $ls
or die "Cannot close pipe to ls: $!";
__END__
might help.
See perldoc perlopentut and perldoc perlipc for more information on
pipes. Clearly, you would open a pipe to the command whose output you are
interested in rather than to ls.

What have you written so far? Post what you have, and tell us what part
you're having trouble with, and someone here will undoubtedly be happy to
answer your questions.
If you need help getting started, there are a number of tutorials to be
found at:

If you haven't done so already, please read the posting guidelines for this

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: 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.
