and there are certificate programs in perl at many colleges
too. extensions schools (even harvard) teach perl. it isn't used much as
the primary language for all compsci classes but it is taught in places.

It doesn't for me:
C:\tmp>type t.pl
# not 2 arguments, print usage
if ($#ARGV != 1) {
print "\nusage: " . $ARGV[0] . "\[backupDir\] \
[backupConfigFile\]\n";
}
C:\tmp>perl -c t.pl
t.pl syntax OK

That's a great way to confuse a newby. Why does the comment say "2
arguments" but you are comparing the variable to 1? Try it like this:
# not 2 arguments, print usage
if ( @ARGV != 2 ) {
> print "\nusage: " . $ARGV[0] . "\[backupDir\] \
Unlike C, Python, etc. the first argument of @ARGV is *not* the program
name, you want the $0 variable instead.

I had a missing semi-colon and the error pointed to that block. :-(

I am using a CGI program to read XML files and extract their various
items. Somehow, my program converts the apostrophe "’" to ...
"\β\\". How do I program my CGI program to convert "’" to
an apostrophe, "'"? Is there a little CGI code that will convert
all these different strings (including dagger, ellipsis,

Thank you very much.

You have a serious misunderstanding that is much too complicated to
explain here. Learn about Unicode.

Oh dear. Replying to percieved rudeness with more rudeness just puts off
potential helpers.
John's reply *did* contain something useful to you.
AIUI John is pointing out that "\β\\" is your Unicode apostrophe
encoded in UTF-8 but displayed using an incorrect encoding such as Latin-1.
Unicode code-point u2019 is represented in UTF8 as the byte sequence e2
80 99 (shown here in hexadecimal), that same byte sequence, when
interpreted as Latin-1 is the three characters β (a acute, euro,
trademark).
You can learn more about Perl's handling of unicode by typing the
command `perldoc perlunicode`
It's a while since I've read the posting guidelines for this newsgroup
but I'm pretty sure they suggest you include a short example program
that demonstrates your problem. That would make it easier for people to
help you identify what you are doing wrong.

Subject: Magic $a $b
Message-Id: <47C69421.2060905@gmx.de>
Hi,
I'm a noob to perl and a frequent reader of this group. Whenever anyone
in here uses $a and/or $b in a non-sort context s/he gets a "Don't!
They're magic." as a response. Now, I believe in magic and the wisdom of
regulars and that's why I mentioned this general rule in
de.comp.lang.perl.misc.
But there happened to be a non-believer and he dared me with "Oh,
really? Perl this:"
use strict;
use warnings;
$a = 4711;
my @arr = qw /x a u q r/;
@arr = sort { $a cmp $b } @arr;
print "$a\n";
which in fact does print the 4711 (a German "magic" number) with Perl
5.8.2, thus no side effects of the sorting (except of course that the
missing "my" in front of $a does not cause an compile error.
Is there any example to prove his impertinence of questioning the gurus'
wisdom?
TIA
Bye
Achim

See mom, no warning! - That's magic.
Using $a and $b defies parts of of using strict.

Thanks for the suggestion. Your regex will match the first instance
of opening and closing of the <b><i> tags; what I needed it to do was
to match the opening of the two tags. My original regex did capture
between two opening instances, but only after skipping one.

while ($html =~ m{<i><b>(.+)</b></i>}g){print "$1\n"}
