I know am I free to. :) Well, I thought I was - the one time I tried
to post, my message bounced and the listadmin never got back to me.
But that wasn't really my point. I find that I learn a lot from the
various computer-related mailing lists I am subscribed to, this one
included*: just by reading other people's problems and the solutions
they are given. It's not like I have several perl-related questions a
week (or would be that desperate to help other people; though it's
always nice if I can do that here).
* Like, for example, the mass-search-and-replace one-liner someone
posted here the other day. I always use this of an example of why
Linux is so useful ("If you need to replace all occurrences of 'foo'
in 668715 files by 'bar', you just write a simple script that does
that for you"), but I'm afraid I would just write a perl script that
read the whole file and then wrote the news content to the same file.
In any case, perl-beginners might be like the thing I'm looking for,
so I just joined that one.
Cheers.
Martijn.
