I also like the recipe metaphor. One of my favorite perl books is the Perl Cookbook (http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/cookbook/). It assumes you already know perl but if you don't do it every day (like me) its very handy. Has simple little routines such as "how to process every file in a directory" and such. It could almost be looked at as a set of application building blocks. My only caveat would be that all recipies with the same purposes be grouped together, but I'm sure that's already a consideration :) -pete -- peter royal -> [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
