Something akin to ``Programming Perl'' (as someone mentioned). I'm talking to a publisher at Manning (http://www.manning.com) about the possibility of such a book. They are intrigued, but would like to see some indication that people are interested. Would you like to see such a book? Something you could pick up in the technical section of your local bookshoppe. If so, speak up, and I'll collect the responses to feed back to the publisher. Thanks. ===== Regards, Graham http://mobile.yahoo.com.au - Yahoo!
