Looks very much like the output of some program generator or the
intermediate code of some compiler to me.
Are you saying someone actually wrote this manually line by line? Say it
ain't so.....

       I have been working with professional computer programmers for ages. 
And I have to keep telling them one thing that they simply don't seem to 
understand regarding science efforts.

       If there is an important problem that needs to get solved, what the 
scientists need are accurate data that can show them how to solve the 
problem.  Quite often, a computer program is needed in the loop to generate 
the data.  And it doesn't matter a bit how nice the program code look, as 
long as they generate the needed data.

       Regardless of how they look and run, my Perl programs generate data 
that are so unique that other scientists around the world who work as 
government science advisors consult with me regarding those data.  They have 
been discussed on TV and in Internet news reports.

       Once the scientists can see from the data that a particular approach 
to solving some problem works then if computer programs are involved they 
can bring in professional programmers who can convert the basic program 
concepts into high quality code.

      But that first step has to be to generate the original data any way 
you can.

       This bulletin board effort is needed at the moment because I can't 
continue to circulate all of these data by E-mail or in Web reports to so 
many people.  It is too inefficient and takes too long.  A specialized 
bulletin board is the only answer.

Two topics are being discussed in this post.

1.  The WWWBoard program modification effort

2.  A proposed Internet computer based disaster mitigation program

THE WWWBOARD PROGRAM MODIFICATION EFFORT

       The more advanced version of the WWWBoard bulletin board program is 
running fairly well now on my PC using the Xampp program.  And a significant 
modifications effort is in progress.

       I would be surprised if anyone else were interested in that program. 
But if someone else is interested then they can try contacting me about the 
modifications being made to the program.

       There are quite a few minor modifications being made such as having 
the program show posting times using UTC instead of local time.  But there 
are two significant modifications that have been made.

A.  A password feature has been added.  And other security features have 
been or are being added.  However, these are not modifications to the 
original program   Instead they are built into other independent programs 
that link with the main WWWBoard program.

B.  The original program is structured so that a number of internal 
addresses have to be set before the program is uploaded to the Internet 
Server computer.  They tell it where to find the message directory and 
various files etc.  That structure is now somewhat different.

       If Xampp is used to make changes to the program then those addresses 
have to be set differently and changed before the program is uploaded to the 
Internet Server.  The way that I  now have the program structured, those 
addresses are set in a separate, small program that then calls the main 
program.  Separate versions of that small program can be stored on the 
Internet Server computer and the PC.  That then makes it possible to make 
modifications to the main program and copy the program intact to the 
Internet Server.  No addresses have to be reset.

A PROPOSED INTERNET COMPUTER BASED DISASTER MITIGATION PROGRAM

       Most of my free time is spent on efforts aimed at disaster 
mitigation, improving health conditions for people around the world, and 
getting world economies to work better.  In connection with one of those 
efforts, back in 2012 I sent a report to U.S. government officials 
recommending that the U.S. and other governments and NGOs such as the United 
Nations develop an Internet based disaster avoidance and response computer 
program that could in a few seconds generate detailed plans for what various 
organizations and civil defense workers needed to do in order to respond to 
major disasters such as earthquakes, tornados, and aircraft crashes.

       Such a program could provide even small communities with the types of 
sophisticated disaster response resources that can presently be found only 
in our largest cities.  The far more rapid and coordinated responses to 
various disasters would undoubtedly result in many lives being saved.  And 
since the program would largely involve the efforts of CGI computer 
programmers it would likely provide employment opportunities for quite a few 
professional programmers around the world.

       So far, U.S. officials have not made any effort to develop the 
program as far as I can tell.  But as other efforts such as this bulletin 
board effort get moving along I am planning to contact U.S. officials again 
about that proposed disaster mitigation program and probably meet with a few 
of them and discuss the subject.

       Part of that planned effort would involve posting notes to various 
computer programming Newsgroups letting people know about the effort.  I can't 
say when that will happen.  But is on my planning board.

       If anyone would like some information regarding that proposed 
Internet based disaster mitigation program they can try contacting me. 
There is a report available that discusses how the program would work.

For once the OP might be correct.  If it's a significant amount of data,
sharing via mailing list would be unpleasant.

       To my amazement, that newer bulletin board program worked with Xampp 
on first try.

       So, I will be adding the password code to that program along with 
some other modifications.  And that should take care of things.

       The newer version actually runs better.  I thought that a problem I 
had been encountering was with the Xampp program.  But the problem 
disappeared with the newer bulletin board program.

 ... and the computer it runs on is 'highly technical and very
useful'. Especially if someone else pays the bills and has to deal
with the fallout.

Yes, well, most of your websites are full-on crackpottery; but the
content is completely irrelevant.  The people most likely to exploit
your blisteringly obvious incompetence are not there for the content,
but for the flaws in your security.

I think you should point your scientific collaborators to this thread,
so they can see what other Perl programmers think of your ability to
host their data safely.

If you weren't using -i, it wasn't necessary to worry about creating a
backup file since the modified content would end up in a new file.

It would call this a case of 'false laziness': You happen to be
familiar with a certain 'date munging' module. The OP wanted to modify
some 'structured text field' which happened to be a data. Ergo:
Clearly, a case for using the date manipulation code. But nothing in
the described problem is related to dates. A sequence of text of the
form

"number0 string number1"

is supposed to be changed such that it becomes

number1-number2-number0

that is, the quotes are supposed to be deleted (I didn't realize
that), the first and the last subfield should be transposed and the
middle string replaced by a two-digit number using a simple,
"well-known" static mapping from twelve three character strings to
numbers. This is exactly the kind of stuff which can be done very
easily with perl, ie

-------------
%months = map { $_, sprintf('%02d', ++$n); } qw(Jan Feb Mar Apr May Jun Jul Aug Sep Oct Nov Dec);

s/^"(\d+)\s+(\S+)\s+(\d+)"/$3-$months{$2}-$1/, print while (<>);
-------------

and telling the OP that he should instead download a couple of
thousands (probably, I've only counted the DM6 file which figures at
691 LOC) of lines of code consisting of 972(!) different files, most
of which are documented(!) as broken and are totally useless for the
problem at hand is not something I'd call a sound piece of technical
advice. It is probably possible to use a combine harvester instead of
a lawnmower but nobody in his right mind would ever do that or suggest
that others do it.

-i is useful in case you're one of those whose 
code never works the first time time though...  
And you can always remove -i later.

Sure, if you don't deal with this kind of
transform often, yet another incantation is
no big deal. And a simple regex can remain
blissfully ignorant of the fact that it's
dealing with dates. But then, if tweaks are 
needed, it's "deja vu all over again". Can't 
remember where to cut'n paste your old tweak..
No problem. Just wade in and watch out for typo's.

I'd agree there are probably better solutions
that pulling in the bloat of Date::Manip. But
there are several good Date modules and it's 
all about leveraging code already written and 
working. Concern with "pulling in a big module" 
is almost always FUD - especially speed concerns. Additionally, if the input format changes, and 
those are dates after all,  a good Date module 
probably has a method to cinch the code tweaks. 
One that's already written...

Then why do we use a simple module function to 
escape HTML for instance.. rather than rolling 
our own? Sometimes a Swiss army knife - rather 
than scrounging around for a small pen knife -
is worth the extra weight in a knapsack.

Every time someone says "I don't believe in theories, another theory
dies. From the traffic in CLP, it appears that real people *don't*
find the Perl 5 use of sigils to be intuitive, and don't think of the
sigils as articles. Personally, I consider sigils to be a blemish on
both Perl 5 and Perl 6.

I regard Perl a a programming language; those who regard it as a shell
may be happier with the sigils than I am.
