Craig Moynes/Markham/IBM [[EMAIL PROTECTED]] quoth:
*>Programming Perl is really quite good.  Tons of info about the internals

*>Perl in a Nutshell is a good desk side reference once you have a handle on
*>the language.

The Nutshell sucks if only because the index that would have made it
useful as a quick reference is non-existent thus rendering it less
attractive and less useful than the Camel.

*>What book(s) do you consider the best for gaining
*>experience in using Perl.

"Teach Yourself Perl in 24 hours" by Clint Pierce is the best real
beginner book out there that I've seen. Yeah, It's a Sams book but they
got lucky with the author.

There is another book in the works that may be coming soon [ july maybe ]
that has a beginner with the web in mind for Perl that is also the best
I've seen of its kind and could be very good for people just wanting Perl
experience.
