can't honestly say that I've tried it .. you have the better of me
there. My only experience with AS Perl is under windows and it was not
that great. It was shed loads better than no Perl at all though, so
thanks to em for that.
in the *nix variant can you load stuff from CPAN straight in ?
my understanding was that you had to wait for some strange process to
occur and a .ppm file to appear or you couldn't load the stuff up. .. but
I could be worng.
