Tiger Mail Issues

2005-06-06 Thread Joseph Alotta
Greetings, I just upgraded to Tiger and I noticed that now the command line mail system is activated. I had been previously been using a perl program using MacGlue to put mail into the Mail.app. I use this program mainly to send myself the output of perl programs in cron. I have

CamelBones on Intel? Maybe not.

2005-06-06 Thread Sherm Pendley
On the surface, today's announcement of a shift to Intel chips is great news for CamelBones developers - Perl code is not, after all, compiled for a specific CPU type. Given the presence of the appropriate supporting framework, Perl code should run just as well on a Mac/Intel as it does on

Universal Binary vs. Perl5

2005-06-06 Thread Dan Kogai
Porters, So it happened. I am surprisingly unsurprised at the news. These days I hardly care CPUs. I am as CPU-blind ad Color-blind (in a politically correct sense). But as a Perl5 porter I found at least a couple of issues we have to care. What's gonna happen to XS?

Hey Sherm, I have two suggestions. Since I know you to be a very good programmer with a very good knowledge of how things work under OS X, I suggest going straight to Apple and pitching the idea of developing CamelBones for them. It could work out quite well if the arrangement is crafted
