There is a known limitation in the Perl 'crypt' function - the result
of
a call to crypt is sensitive only to the first eight characters of the
encrypted string.

E.g., the two following calls will both result in: '<b>san3ikkE.ivL2'</
b>:

crypt ('wordword', 'salt');
crypt ('wordwordword', 'salt');

Can someone recommend a Perl module that would be useful
to implement encryption of long passwords, in such way that
the result of the two calls above would differ?

Strength similar to that of crypt or better is OK.

Look Ma, I can use google: "perl encrypt password"
First hit contains "Crypt::PasswdMD5", go to CPAn, find Crypt-PasswdMD5-1=

Jozef, thanks for the tip.
I can google too - actually did it quite a lot before posting.

I did looking at Crypt-PasswdMD5-1.3 on
http://search.cpan.org/dist/Crypt-PasswdMD5-1.3/PasswdMD5.pm

Didn't see there anything about length, folding passwords etc. - so
the only
way to know is to try it.

And then .. I thought .. wait Ma - maybe there is a guy out there who
knows?
And then I posted my question.

Now I actually tried it - and I do see that Crypt::PasswdMD5 does the
job and creates encrypted strings that are sensitive to length of
input string greated than 8.

Again, thanks for the tip.

Ok, you showed us an excerpt of your *input* file. Now it would be
nice if you also gave some indications about your expected *output*.

I cannot parse your English sentences, but I'm not a native English
speaker, and so I have difficulties in this sense? May you try to be
so gentle and rephrase them in a friendlier way? Even if this is not a
helpdesk to spoonfeed you with ready made solutions, someone will
probably do, if at least you express clearly your requirements.

Thanks a bunch, I also found it late last nite. It's exactly what I
need. I had tried the configuration of /Users/*/Sites as I do in the
Apache config to expand but it didn't work. Placing in the Mason
handler is exactly what I thought I would have to do so thanks for
confirming it.

Later - Thanks again

Subject: nomenclature
Message-Id: <1174905585.291573.103400@y66g2000hsf.googlegroups.com>

Hello

I wonder what the commonly used nomenclature in a regex environment
for the following sentence is. "The regex is applied to the target
string". I mean especially the verb "being applied" and the noun
"target string".
A longer sentence which makes it more clear what I mean: If the regex
'bi*g' applied to the target string 'He is big', 'big' is matched.

Subject: order of evaluation
Message-Id: <1174905681.092089.324600@y80g2000hsf.googlegroups.com>

Hello

Consider these two regular expressions
1) .*.*
2) .*?.*?

which are equivalent to
1) (.*)(.*)
2) (.*?)(.*?)

Where the * is the greedy 0-or-more quantifier and *? the lazy 0-or-
more quantifier. In the following \1 is a backreference to the match
inside the first parenthesis, \2 likewise for the 2nd parenthesis.

As I understand it, most flavours of regular expressions have the
following behaviour for the two regexes above
1) \1 returns the whole target string, \2 returns the empty string
2) \1 returns the empty string, \1 returns the whole target string

Is that statement correct at all, i.e. do indeed most flavours have
that behaviour?

Which rules dictates that behaviour? I would say
"for regexes, order of evaluation is left to right"
But I am not sure since I never saw such a statement.

Remember that "order of evaluation" and "precedence" are *not* the
same thing, at least not in general. See also

Yes.

> 2) \1 returns the empty string, \2 returns the whole target string

No.  They both return the empty string.  They're both non-greedy.
There is nothing forcing the second one to return anything more than 0
characters.

You can check this for yourself:
$ perl -le'"Foo Bar" =~ /(.*)(.*)/; print qq{"$1"-"$2"}'
"Foo Bar"-""
$ perl -le'"Foo Bar" =~ /(.*?)(.*?)/; print qq{"$1"-"$2"}'
""-""

Now, if you had anchored the patterns to the start/end of the string,
then you would be correct:
$ perl -le'"Foo Bar" =~ /^(.*)(.*)$/; print qq{"$1"-"$2"}'
"Foo Bar"-""
$ perl -le'"Foo Bar" =~ /^(.*?)(.*?)$/; print qq{"$1"-"$2"}'
""-"Foo Bar"

> Is that statement correct at all, i.e. do indeed most flavours have

I have no idea what you mean by "flavors".  I'm talking about Perl
regular expressions.  If you're asking about regular expressions in
some other language, you'd have to ask a group devoted to that
language.

perldoc perlre
     Alternatives are tried from left to right, so the first
     alternative found for which the entire expression matches,
     is the one that is chosen.

I searched on "Java Text::CSV" and got the hits I said I got - none of the 
first ten hits were CPAN, eight of them were HXTT. Those were my results. I 
said what I said based on what I experienced. You can make all the claims you

Yes, but you didn't tell us /what/ you searched for. Unless stated
otherwise, it is reasonable to expect that the search string is
"Text::CSV" and nothing else. Your touchy reaction to "being expected to
know" what link to follow is irrelevant unless we know what you're
searching for. Ah well... Peace!

In addition to Jim's comments, don't define your subs like that. The
empty parentheses are a prototype (see `perldoc perlsub`), telling
perl that the sub takes no parameters.

Define your subs like this:

   sub updatecitation

No it doesn't, it expects a time value expressed in seconds since the 
epoch *UTC*  In our context, UTC means exactly the same as GMT.

gmtime does exactly what you asked.

$ perldoc -f time
time    Returns the number of non-leap seconds since whatever time the
         system considers to be the epoch (that's 00:00:00, January 1,
         1904 for Mac OS, and 00:00:00 UTC, January 1, 1970 for most
         other systems).  Suitable for feeding to "gmtime" and "local-
         time".

Surely the whole reason we have gmtime and localtime is that gmtime is 
NOT localtime (except in locales on or near the Greenwich meridian).

$ perldoc -f gmtime
    gmtime EXPR
    Converts a time as returned by the time function to an 8-ele-
    ment list with the time localized for the standard Greenwich
    time zone.

Maybe the word "localized" is confusing people?

Paul's answer surprises me since I see no reason to not use gmtime in 
any timezone to achieve what the OP asked.

$ perl -le'print scalar gmtime(1174703700)'
Sat Mar 24 02:35:00 2007

$ TZ=EST perl -le'print scalar gmtime(1174703700)'

The Perl documentation could be improved to prevent this sort of 
misunderstanding. It should probably say "time expressed in GMT" or 
"time expressed in UTC" to avoid confusing people who don't understand 
what GMT and BST are.

GMT is the same as UTC. For half the year, localtime in Greenwich is GMT.

> It can be either or but not both. 

For half the year it *IS* both. In the winter, local time in Greenwich 
is GMT, in the summer the clocks (local time) are switched to BST. GMT 
remains the same all year round (and is almost identical to UTC).

The Royal Observatory Greenwich says:
"Throughout the winter months we will be using Coordinated Universal 
Time (almost identical to Greenwich Mean Time or GMT). At 1.00 am on 25
