Yep. But the real use of select is to wait (with a timeout) until I/O is
possible. And I understand this is what the OP wanted to do. Something
like (using the ooish IO::Select instead of the builtin):

    use IO::Select;
    ...
    $select = IO::Select->new()
    $select->add($sock);
    ...
    print $sock "ping\n";
    my @fh = $select->can_read(5.0);
    if (@fh) {
        # server has answered, read the response
        my $line = $fh[0]->readline;
    } else {
        # server didn't answer in 5 seconds.
    }

This can easily be expanded to multiple I/O channels. 

There are some caveats, though. Most importantly, select doesn't know
about buffers, so you may need to use sysread in some cases.

try something like this in the .bashrc or .profile files

export PERL5LIB="/usr/bin/perl5.10.0"


See if that works.

Err... no. Not even close.

The simplest answer is to install 5.10 without the /usr/bin/perl alias
(pass -Dversiononly -Uusrbinperl to Configure) and then set up a shell
alias perl => perl5.10.0 for that user. The alternative would be to
install 5.10 somewhere else entirely (like /usr/local, or /opt/perl5.10)
and put that location first in that user's path.

Both of these require that you install perl yourself from source. If
you're installing it from a package system you will need to see if that
package system supports this sort of thing.

PERL5LIB tells the interpreter where to look for modules. It doesn't
tell the OS where the interpreter is. 

On Unix systems (and I assume greymaus is using something unixish
because of the unix-like pathnames and the mentioning of .profile) you
usually use the shebang line to tell the OS where the interpeter is.
Just start your scripts with 

#!/usr/bin/perl5.10.0

or 

#!/usr/bin/perl5.8.8

depending on which interpreter you want to use.

If you install something from CPAN, it will automatically be installed
for the interpreter you use for the installation.

What is left is manually invoking perl - I usually do this only when
debugging (perl -d script) or when installing my own modules (perl
Build.PL or perl Makefile.PL). In this case you can either get into the
habit of invoking the interpreter you want (perl5.8.8 -d script) or put
a symlink perl -> /usr/bin/perl5.8.8 in a personal directory (I
use $HOME/bin) and put that at the front of the path.

I go to https://rt.cpan.org and am automatically loggged in, without any
hassle at all.

On the top of the initial page it says:
Please report any issues with rt.cpan.org to
rt-cpan-admin@bestpractical.com.

I use it every day and have never had that experience, so the problem
must be at your end.

Subject: rt.cpan.org, search.cpan.org: why so unuseable?
Message-Id: <g31o2s$i67$1@ml.accsnet.ne.jp>

Whenever I try to submit a bug via rt.cpan.org, I have to go through 
about five screens in order to log in. First, I get the login screen, 
which tells me I'm an anonymous guest. Then I press login, and wait about 
five seconds or more to get a screen which tells me "You have been logged 
out of rt.cpan.org. You're welcome to log back in again." If I leave this 
screen open, I'll be sent back automatically to the previous screen. If I 
keep going, and try to log in with my "bitcard account", I have to click 
through an invalid certificate notice, click, wait, click, wait, click, 
wait, until finally I arrive at a page where it tells me I'm logged in. 
Then, having finally logged in to the system, I have no way to get back 
to the page where I was going to report a bug, except by going back in 
the browser and then reloading the page.

This contorted login process alone probably puts off about half or more 
of the people who try to report a bug.

My question is, why is rt.cpan.org so unuseable? Perl should be able to 
do much better. CPAN should tell the people behind rt.cpan.org to make it 
useable, or ditch the whole RT system in favour of something which 
actually works, like Bugzilla (also written in Perl). The fact that this 
cranky, slow software is used as a vital component of CPAN doesn't 
inspire confidence.

Secondly, while I'm about it, what's wrong with search.cpan.org? I have 
no idea what software is behind the search engine, but sometimes the 
search pages come up totally blank or they miss things which I know are 
there.

Instead of wasting money on Perl 6, which surely will never be finished:

http://news.perlfoundation.org/2008/05/tpf_receives_large_donation_in.html

it would be better if the Perl foundation spent its money employing a 
full-time administrator of CPAN to sort out these bugs.

Actually you can just send a mail to bug-<dist>@rt.cpan.org, the only
difference is that your report might not be associated with the account
you use on rt.cpan.org.

Alan arvostuksesta kertoo varsin suoraan se miten alan ammattityöväestö
suhtautuu tekemiseensä. Siitä voidaan ottaa esimerkkejä laajasti.
Ammattilaiset haluavat usein myös jälkikasvustaan työnsä jatkajia.
Yritysmaailma on pullollaan työstä ylpeitä isältä pojalle siirrettyä
sukuosaamista. Mutta yksi ala loistaa poissaolollaan. Yksikään ydinalan
ammattilainen ei kehu firmaansa  julkisesti netissä, lehdissä, ei edes asiaa
kyselevälle lapselleen. Jos katsomme ketkä julkisuudessa ydinlobbailevat,
niin yhtään alan ammattilaista ei taatusti näy lehtiotsikoissa, netissä
saati mualla. Vain rahalla ostettavia politikkoja ja vastaavia, jotka eivät
erota uraania hiilimustasta taatusti.

Rupesin todella ihmettelemään miksi. Ja ennenkaikkea KETKÄ ovat maassamme
nykyään ydinalan ammattilaisia? Heitä on maassamme tietysti tuhansittain,
mutta keitä? Heille on yhteinen piirre se, ettei näillä ole esim.
perustuslakiemme mukaista lakko-oikeutta, kellään! Toinen keskeinen piirre
on niinikää lainvastaiset ylipitkät jopa 12h työvuorot ja loputtomat
ylityöjaksot vailla omaa päätäntäoikeutta. Kolmas ominaisuus on tekemänsä
työn arkaluontoisuus, mikä tarkoittaa orjallista vaitiololupauspakotetta
uhkailu-ukaaseineen ydinjohdolta. Esim. OL-1,OL-2 ja OL-3 työmailla ei
KETÄÄN saa mennä vapaasti jututtamaan tekemisistään ja määräys on ehdoton,
vaikka maamme pitäisi olla demokratia. Mikä kertoo myös alan valonarkuudesta
ja hämäryydestä enemmän kuin paljon.

Niinikää ydintyöläisten palkkataso on enmemmän kuin romahtanut loistonsa
päivistä. Jos lasketaan Suomen ydintyöläisten ansiotasot saadaan tyytyä jopa
7 euron tuntipalkkoihin! Reippaasti alle jopa siivoojaminimistä puhutaan
ydinalan ammattilaisistamme keskimäärin kautta maamme! Kun vielä 70-luvulla
ydinosaaja oli huippupalkkalainen ja arvostettu, on hän tänään lähinnä
kansan hyljeksimä reppupuolalainen, liettualaisorja, turkkilainen, yms.
joita katsotaan pitkin nenänvartta, jopa kaupan kassalla, koska heitä
arvotetaan toki myös olemattoman orjapalkkaostovopimansa mukaan
olemattomuuksiin. Ja tieto siitä, että suurin osa ei maksa edes veroja,
saati sotuja ja vastaavia alentaa tasoa mutasarjaan kansan silmin.

Vaarallisesta työstä johtuvat moninkymmenkertaiset sairastumisriskit
työtapaturmista, kielitaidottomuutensa takia tulee valtavasti
onnettomuuslisäriskejä, samoin kouluttautumattomuuksistaan, säteilystä ja
vastaavista lisäriskeistä kiistatta puhutaan ydintyöläisissä. Hyvällä ei
näihin pitkälti "slummiparakeissaan "huuhaileviin" ydinorjin suhtauduta enää
edes harmistuneitten kauppiaitten piirissä. Säteilyvaaransa takia heillä on
normaalityöläisiä ankarammat
lääkärintarkastusvaateet jne. Ydintyöläiselle on kauhistus , jos lapsensa
tulisivat samaan työhön jatkajiksi.Voi vaan hämmästellä kuinka nopeasti
ydinalan mega-arvostus on romahtanut nykyiseen mitäänsanomattomuuteensa.
heijastellen sitä pettymystä mitä ydinvoiman loisteliaitten lupausten
romahdettua tshernobyliin on tuottanut. Voi vaan arvailla, että kuinkan näin
totaalisen pettymyksen ala saa enää jatkossa KETÄÄN kiinostumaan sen
ylläpidosta?
