Amy -- First of all, you might get a better response to this on the beginners list, since it's not really a CGI matter. That aside, though, ...
...and then Amy Kim said... % % I am looking for web sites teaching differences or comparison of Shell and Perl. Does anybody know any good web sites for that? You might narrow down your focus a little to talk about just what kind of differences you mean -- programming style, portability, purposes, or whatnot -- since the man pages for each should provide you with an understanding of the two so that you can draw your own conclusions if you want to curl up with a bit of good reading. I don't know of any comparison sites (though I'd be interested in your findings), but a start might be Google's http://directory.google.com/Top/Computers/Programming/Languages/Comparison_and_Review/ which might include shell in there. A little more googling led me to http://www.unixreview.com/documents/s=2427/uni1021415397994/0205f.htm which covers how to do a task in shell and perl and might show you some of the differences. All in all, it's probably a very good question in need of a good answer. % % Amy HTH & HAND :-D -- David T-G * It's easier to fight for one's principles (play) [EMAIL PROTECTED] * than to live up to them. -- fortune cookie (work) [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.justpickone.org/davidtg/ Shpx gur Pbzzhavpngvbaf Qrprapl Npg!
