Message-Id: <45f2e581-b4e8-4d50-b9f1-0dd72d84088b@p69g2000hsa.googlegroups.com>
Hi I am using
emacs GNU Emacs 21.4.1, with CPerl mode enabled.
on debian sid.
I am writing a gtk2-pel program and I noticed that CPerl goes crazy
with the syntax highling
going off, and also the indenting C-M--\ not working for a few lines
if I use variables like
my my $old_z=3;
my $old_y = 4;
...
some more lines of code
...
the second line shows the 4 in a funny color
an dthen the next couple of lines get a "greyed out look",
and when I try to indent it leaves the next lines pushed to the left
margin.
All goes back to normal if I do
my $oldx = 3;
my $oldy = 4;
instead.
Why is this. Same with $main::old_x and $main::old_y.
Thanks,
MItchell Laks

Then the read line will be the empty line.

Just check against empty line or Y.

Just print them. However you may have to turn off output buffering.

Here is one way (untested):
query:
print "Prompt [Y]: ";
my $ans = <STDIN>;
chomp($ans);
$ans = 'Y' unless $ans;
if( $ans =~ /^ty/i ) {
...
}elsif( $ans =~ /^fn/i ) {
...
}else{
print "\"$ans\" is not a valid answer\n";
goto query;
}

Here's one method of showing dots while other stuff is running:
#!/usr/bin/perl
use warnings;
use threads;
use threads::shared;
my ($done, $thr);
share $done;
# Show dots at 1-second intervals while sub executes
sub pdots {
while (! $done) {
sleep 1;
print ".";
};
}
# start printing
sub showdots {
$|=1;
$done = 0;
$thr = threads->create( \&pdots );
}
# stop printing
sub stopdots {
$done = 1;
$thr->join;
}
showdots( );
print "Starting 5 second task ";
# do your long-running task here
sleep 5;
stopdots();
print " Done\n";

From a user experience this is a very poor design.
It will keep printing those dots even if the main task got stuck a long time
ago, tricking the user into believing that there is still something useful
going on.
It is much better to give an actual progress indicator, e.g. if you have to
process 10 million entries, then print one dot for every 10000 actually
processed.

Ugh. That just tells me that time has not ceased to exist as far as the
computer is concerned. That is not a problem I've ever run into. I
want a progress meter to tell me that progress is actually occurring on
the relevant task, not that the arrow of time is still in place and
functioning.

Install Perl on the other PC. If you install Activestate Perl and
accept the defaults during the install, it will create the file
associations and set the path environment.

Since lcd changes the local current directory, you should just use the
chdir built-in function, I think.

Tk is event based. That means that you're just executing code whenever
some event happens. The event can be a user action but it can also be
activity on a socket or a timeout or whatever.
You may want to look at the Tk::after manpage.

I'd like to use "Tie::IxHash" to maintain the order of keys in a hash.
Since the hash can contain other hashes (and so on), I need to use
"Tie::IxHash::Easy" so that the nested hashes also maintain their ordering.
I'm reading the entire hash from a file. The format of the file is exactly
like Data::Dumper so that I can build the hash by simply saying:
eval($file_contents);
This fails because there's no way to "tie" the internal workings of eval to
"Tie::IxHash::Easy" so it always just returns a normal hash. Copying the
returned into an IxHash has no effect because the ordering is already lost.
So, how can I load an IxHash from a file in Data::Dumper format and
preserve its order (including nested hashes)?
Thanks.
