Thank you for your answer, Dancer seems easy and fun. I would then deploy as standalone to interface to a local database? ( https://metacpan.org/module/Dancer::Deployment#Running-stand-alone ) By the way, I'm running Debian Squeeze, while my teacher runs Mac. Today I got the specifications of the task (I am studying a course in database theory as part of a library science master), and what he wants (he wants it in made in FileMaker, while I would like to practice my Perl-fu (also FM is proprietary and silly)) is a small library database system, with the following functionality: manage posts in the catalog (add, delete, update, search) manage borrowers (as above) manage lending (lending, returning, "who has the book") implement two different user-views (librarian and user (security not important). Would I be able to do this with Dancer, and how would I go about it? I've never written an application like this before. Thanks for a great malinglist. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: beginners-unsubscr...@perl.org For additional commands, e-mail: beginners-h...@perl.org http://learn.perl.org/
