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
ftp://ftp.xemacs.org/pub/xemacs/windows/setup.exe
o More Emacs resources at
http://tiny-tools.sourceforge.net/ => Emacs resource page
Emacs Perl Modules
Cperl -- Perl programming mode
http://math.berkeley.edu/~ilya/software/emacs/
by Ilya Zakharevich
CPerl is major mode for editing perl files. Also included in
latest Emacs, but newest version is at Ilya's site. Note that
the directrory at CPAN is out of date:
http://www.cpan.org/modules/by-authors/id/ILYAZ/cperl-mode/
Compared to default `perl-mode' that comes with Emacs, this
one has more features.
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@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/
file1:NNN: MATCHED TEXT
file1:NNN: MATCHED TEXT
End

Prototypes in Perl"

The short version is: prototypes in Perl are not what you are expecting
if you've programmed in any other programming language.

Oops ! Sorry for the mess.
I *know* what a l-value is, but I did not read correctly the FAQ. I saw
a ternary C operator instead, so I could not imagine that the Perl
operator assigns $a or $b ! stupid.
Of course, it works as expected and I agree.
Of course, I'm not a Perl expert (neither a C expert).
Thanks for the tip.

On the other hand, the "although" at the beginning implies that you can't
do the same thing in C, which *is* false. It can be done, all it takes is
some pointer gymnastics:
#include <stdio.h>
int main() {
int foo;
int bar;
*( 1 ? &foo : &bar ) = 5;
*( 0 ? &foo : &bar ) = 10;
printf("Foo: %d\nBar: %d\n", foo, bar);
}
Produces this output:
Foo: 5
Bar: 10
[ObPerl] Also, isn't it discouraged to use $a and $b outside of a sort()
callback?

It is called an _l_value, because it can appear on the _l_eft-hand
side of an assignment.
The FAQ code has ?: on the left-hand side of an assignment.
> It should be : $x=($maybe ? $a : $b);
Your code has ?: on the right-hand side of an assignment,
therefore, it is something other than an lvalue.
$x is the lvalue in your code.

You are absolutely right : it's a reado. My brain "wanted" to see a C
ternary operator.
Thanks for the help

Message-Id: <1163647669.505418.57420@k70g2000cwa.googlegroups.com>
I have used LWP UserAgent a couple times before to POST to a third
party site, and then parse what I needed out of the response... But
what I want to do now is set up appropriate fields as if from a FORM,
and POST them to an external URL, and turn the browser over to that
site rather than returning the response to my script...
How can this be done the simplest?
There are too many fields to set up as a GET and print as a Location
header....

You cannot.
system() and exec() have the same syntax, they differ only
in their semantics.

Thanks for your reply.
I wasn't too sure the diagnosis was very clear ...
I have the following gcc pre-installed :
-r-xr-xr-x 3 root bin 122260 Jan 23 2005 /usr/sfw/bin/gcc
Do you know of any way I can find out whether it is corrupted or
incomplete in any way.
Thanks,
Ashish

Hi Mark,
Thanks for the tip.
I want to be able to compile perl as later I will need to be able to
compile additional modules. In particular, I want to be able to compile
the sybperl module which is for connecting to a sybase database.
I also wanted to be able to have a separate perl for one particular
application in the application's sub directory structure. I wanted to
be free from the unix admins as in our case, the machine is managed by
an offsite vendor, and they are not very responsive.
Do you think I can install a solaris package in a directory of my
choice?
Thanks,
Ashish

One way is to use fork().

In addition to the other suggestions, you may want to check out the CPAN
module Parallel::ForkManager.

HI,
Running a Tk script on my XP I always get an error.

threads->create(sub { print("I am a thread\n"); })->join();
Error:

Any ideas?
