Could we also agree a suitable acronym for all Perl Questions and replies.
I suggest [BPQ] for Beginners Perl Question.
That way people can set-up an email folder and move them using a rule.
This would go at the start of the subject line.

A good idea. Let's try this: if someone wants a specific tutorial that
they think would be generically useful to others as well, post the
request with [TUT] in the subject. If someone wants to tackle it, there
you go. That way if we're forgetting something, someone can point it
out quickly.
