I can see the argument behind making replacements for MSA code be functionally identical in most visible ways, but when you're dealing with CPAN code, presumably, you're dealing with somewhat more savvy programmers that could handle having to tweak a few things to get a replacement up & running. Especially when considering that the rationale behind the original module may, as in this case, have been flawed in the first place.

I've got about the same setup, but with 64 mb. It's really slow for me, though not as bad as the public beta was. Running it with 128 or more would definitely be adviseable. I haven't yet noticed any problems (mainly because Classic brings everything to a creeping halt with 64 mb of ram, so I'm avoiding it as much as possible), but as I've mentioned on (void), I keep hearing complaints about some applications not playing nicely, particularly with regard to the way OSX/Mach manages memory -- i.e. apps that only worked on OS9 when you disabled virtual memory don't work now because OSX doesn't seem to let you mess around with memory settings.

Correct. Standard format is an implicit 1, a three digit area code, a three digit local code and a four digit extension. The local code & extension are always mandatory, so effectively phone numbers are 7 digits long -- the local code is just useful to give a rough idea where the number may be base (but then with cell phones it's meaningless, so the original purpose, already diluted, is disappearing). We're burning through phone numbers very very quickly, to the point that new area codes are being added all the time and as a result people's phone numbers are changing all the time. To control the hemmoraging, some areas are going to full ten digit phone numbers; we'll see how much it helps. In any event, the leading 1 is never part of the phone number, but you always have to dial it whenever making a "long distance" call. This used to mean anything beyond a certain distance from your local calling area &/or anything outside of your area code, but with 10 digit numbers you'll probably just have to put it in front of about every number dialled, thus giving everyone in the country an 11 digit phone number. -- Chris Devers [EMAIL PROTECTED]

But we do have a Perl test that I helped write (and while it isn't great by any means, I hope it's better than the one being used before I helped revise it). We don't really get involved in the certification game, but rather provide software that allows companies doing such certifications to assess candidates.

You'll see your window get sucked down into the dock, as though it were being drawn into a funnel. While quite cool the first few times, some people (me!) have found it a little annoying after a while. Those with slower machines may also find it something of a CPU hog. Luckily, Apple included a way to change the genie effect, but chose not to put it into a GUI tool at this time. I'm sure someone will have one written within a week, but for now, here's how you do it. Open a terminal session (the Terminal application is inside Applications/Utilities), and type one of the following: defaults write com.apple.Dock mineffect genie defaults write com.apple.Dock mineffect suck defaults write com.apple.Dock mineffect scale The "genie" option is normal behavior, "suck" is sort of hard to describe but it's more like a reverse twisted genie, and "scale" (my personal favorite) simply reduces the window equally from all sides while dropping it to the dock. The other nice thing about "scale" is that it's blindingly fast (on my G4/350, while the genie lags a bit), so windows vanish very quickly. http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php?story=20010324091350279 Sounds like you want the 'scale' option. Playing around with this defaults command seems to be just a command line interface to corresponding xml config files, most of which seem to live in ~/Library/Preferences or /System/Library/Preferences, and most of which seem to have a .plist suffix. I haven't had the time to go very far with these, but it seems like you can control most of the behavior of the GUI from these config files if you know what you're doing. -- Chris Devers [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Let's make a film, a travel film, involving Damien-esque programming as a
plot device. We can make PIMF ("Perl is my Film") tshirts to promote it,
even if Randal doesn't like them. It will involve many pub scenes, Viking
type raids on unsuspecting other groups (webboards might not work, but
something to that effect).
In homage to great cinema epic "Ishtar", there will be camel scenes (but
at the zoo), after which the camel will be served as supper, followed by
dinner table cameos by Dr Who & Willow (on a pony), who will show how to
prepare for the coming Y2K crisis.
That covers most of 'em. Drink up!
