First there was "Perl",
then there was "Practical Extraction and Report Language".
First there was "If I recall correctly",
then there was "IIRC".
The difference between the two isn't very subtle.

The spelling of Perl is relevant to the work.
In particular, someone who is asininely stubborn about spelling Perl as
PERL is also likely to have other idiosyncracies that make him difficult
to get along with; perhaps he has a strong preference for 3-space tabs
that will irritate everyone else who works on his text files, or
something else that will make everyone else's life difficult.
GCE> Why would you ding someone for writing in short hand what Larry

Because the Perl FAQ says not to do it. Someone who writes PERL instead
of Perl has either not read the FAQ or believes he knows better than the
FAQ, and both of those are very bad signs in a candidate.

When it's the view of a significant majority, that's enough to get it

That should be:

however, if you are matching something in addition to just word

Can you explain the difference between:
+orange
purple
Is "purple" required or not? What does the "+" mean?

Yes. Perl REs support POSIX character classes as well as negation.
Therefore [:^print:] would denote a non-printable character.

write windows native applications that use windows elements using

Message-Id: <f8516510-a5e8-475b-a9dc-15da25f6f1cf@m45g2000hsb.googlegroups.com>
As a follow-up from an earlier post I am having problems with running
a compiled perl executable. If I include the -d option on the PP
command line the resulting executable fails with...
Can't locate Win32.pm in @INC (@INC contains: .) at -e line 786.

END failed--call queue aborted at -e line 974.
The script source is...
print "Hello World\n";
I googled for hours and I think that there is something wrong with the
PAR build and/or the perl58.dll but I could not locate a way to
resolve this. I running Perl5.8.8. with the latest PAR & PAR-
Packer(0.976) on Windows XPsp3
Has anyone come across this problem and know how to resolve it?

I have had exactly this problem, and I never found a solution beyond not
using -d. The problem seems to be that Win32.pm is loaded by the perl
core really early, before PAR has a chance to insert its hooks into
@INC; I don't really understand why not using -d makes a difference to
that.
