I'm not sure what you mean here. O'Reilly is a book publisher who publishes, amongst other things, the definitive 'Programming Perl'. As far as know there's no subscription available. > I have a question, because really i couldn't help > myself... > > I don't know where to write the Perl code... > > it may sound weird, but it's true.. That's fine; let's try to get you started. You need to create a file called something like 'hello.pl', containing exactly this line: print "Hello, world!\n"; If you have no other text editor you can use Windows' 'notepad'. Then open a command prompt window and enter perl hello.pl You should get something printed if I have guessed right about where you are. > I've got something called : "Perl Package manager", in > activestate activeperl 5.6 You don't need PPM unless you want to add new modules to the ones already installed in ActivePerl.
