Ah, but there *is* a more appropriate specific group for this
question, and it's called comp.infosystems.www.authoring.cgi. And
even more relevantly, it's mentioned in the FAQ answer you cited as an
appropriate place to ask CGI-specific questions. If you're going to
cite the FAQ at people, I recommend you read the answers fully, and
not snip only the bits that you like.
There are also likely to be groups dedicated to his web server: the
users@httpd.apache.org mailing list, for instance, if he's using
Apache. This is also a far more appropriate place to ask Apache
questions with no specific Perl content.
Your quotation from the FAQ does not support your stance, especially
as the same question directs the reader to a more appropriate place.
Language-independent questions about the configuration of web servers,
and about the *historical* configuration of web servers, simply do not
belong in comp.lang.perl.misc. That's why the word 'perl' is in the
name of the newsgroup, and why the Perl FAQ directs people to ciwac.

It means implementet only using Perl and not by implementing parts of

Acording to the Legend Of The Great Knuth ( derived from personal
confessions ) Knuth used a "Clean Room" approach. He specified and
verified the entire program before he started hacking it into the
machine. The result is accordingly. What has changed since then is
computer power and easeness of tool usage. One would rather use an
incremental approach today and specify + hack + test the program in
tiny pieces without struggling too much with the programming
equipment. So it also just incrementally improves.

this is wrong on so many levels i can't even count that high with 64 bit
ints. first off it is perl4 code which is deader than W's
brane. secondly it is VERY BAD CODE.
and also pasting the entire program (2k+ lines) here is dumber than
hell. you really think someone will wade through that fugly mess and add
a feature for free?? read the group guidelines which are posted
regularly.
even if you offered to pay a large sum of money (and anything less than
5 digits is not worth even acknowledging), no one in their right mind
would tackle that. if you are making money from this then you will need
to sign over your revenue stream for several years to get someone to
hack this mess.
and wtf does your subject even mean?? what are characters in a shopping
cart? this is such a wonderful posting for so many fun reasons. i will
use its code for years of training in how not to code in perl. i hope it
is copyrighted or something so i am stealing it too. it will be fun to
be sued over this pile of crap.
this is my favorite sub i found from a very quick scan (i did it for the
giggles :).
# SUBROUTINE number check #
# *********************** #
sub not_a_number {
local($thisnum) = @_;
local($len, $lenchk);
$thisnum =~ tr/$//d;
$thisnum =~ tr/.//d;
$thisnum =~ tr/,//d;
$len = length $thisnum;
$thisnum =~ tr/a-z//d; $thisnum =~ tr/A-Z//d;
$thisnum =~ tr/\-//d; $thisnum =~ tr/\=//d; $thisnum =~ tr/\\//d;
$thisnum =~ tr/-//d;
$thisnum =~ tr/\[//d; $thisnum =~ tr/\]//d; $thisnum =~ tr/;//d;
$thisnum =~ tr/'//d;
$thisnum =~ tr/\///d;
$lenchk = length $thisnum;
if ( $len ne $lenchk ) {
return(1);
}
return(0);
}
that is some of the worst perl code (or any lang code) i have ever
seen. the algorithm is hysterical and the implementation even dumber. it
doesn't even check for all sorts of other characters! the final
comparison even uses the wrong op.
i should make up a lightning talk on the worst perl code i have
seen. this is the lead item (or the last one as it can't be beat!)

Subject: sourcing one perl file from another
Message-Id: <1193046751.344744.305550@i38g2000prf.googlegroups.com>
Hi Perl gurus,
I've a question, and I was wondering if anyone could
I've a perl program, and I'm trying to make it tidier.
I have a huge file of a array of variables, for initialization,
something like this:
$key1[64]="0xc120718a1ccce7f8";
$key2[64]="0xeadf28cb82020921";
$key1[128]="0xaf503224b6cff0639cf0dc310a4b1277";
$key2[128]="0x3e1fcbd4e91ca24bb276914de3764cdf";
etc etc
Currently, they're all in the huge perl script file as the perl code
that uses it. I was hoping to separate this out to another file.
Is there any way for my mail perl file to read this file? I was
thinking of using a .pm file, but I was wondering if there was any
easier way?
Thanks,
Kelvin

...and make sure mydata.pl is treated as executable code, not as a
configuration. It's important for security to realize that do() is a
poor replacement for a decent configuration system.

Use one of the following CPAN modules:
YAML (with the YAML data format)
AppConfig
XML::Simple (with the XML data format)
...or consider a file storage solution, depending on your exact needs.
Seems like you're doing binary data, so your needs may be very specific
and you may already have an input file from which you're extracting the
configuration data.
You don't have to use pure Perl for configurations, and in fact it makes
your program more complicated and less maintainable as you've
discovered. Crutches like do() will not help you in the long term.

TeX, in my opinion, has done massive damage to the computing world.
i have written on this variously in emails. No coherent argument, but
the basic thoughts are here:
http://xahlee.org/cmaci/notation/TeX_pestilence.html
it's slightly repeatitous there. But i think i might summarize in gist
the few fundanmental issues, all sterm from just the first one:
1. A typesetting system per se, not a mathematical expressions
representation system.
2. The free nature, like cigeratte given to children, contaminated the
entire field of math knowledge representation into 2 decades of
stagnation.
3. Being a typesetting system, brainwashed entire generation of
mathematicians into micro-spacing doodling.
4. Inargurated a massive collection of documents that are invalid
HTML. (due to the programing moron's ingorance and need to idolize a
leader, and TeX's inherent problem of being a typesetting system that
is unsuitable of representing any structure or semantics)
5. This is arguable and trivial, but i think TeX judged as a computer
language in particular its syntax, on esthetical grounds, sucks in
major ways.
Btw, a example of item 4 above, is Python's documentation. Fucking
asses and holes.

However the logon problem is solved.

This error is normal as long as your script does not respond to
service control messages resp. sets the service state. Again: See the
service templates in the Win32::Daemon manual page.
