[MacPerl] Tainted environment variables

Hi all, I'm just testing Graham Barr's Scalar::Util module. This module exports a function tainted(), which allows a boolean test whether or not a variable is tainted. On a Unix machine, the following two tests should be ok, when run with the -T switch: my $key = (keys %ENV)[0]; $var = $ENV{

[MacPerl] Compress::Zlib 1.09

Again with the help of Chris and people on the list, another port has been done. It's not perfect with CFM68K, but I decided to distribute since it seems to work fine with PPC. You can download the archive and the PGP sign from: http://www2.watanabe.arch.waseda.ac.jp/hw/1992/kim/MacPerl/Comprs

You might check Mirror 2.9 at: I have it running on Linux, but I am not sure whether it will run on MacPerl. Andy At 11:32 AM -0700 2/7/01, Pete Prodoehl wrote: >I'm working on a script to loop thru a set of directories and ftp files >to a >remote serve

RE: [MacPerl] FTP mirroring script?

I've got a working version now, it's used now on an NT box and sends files to a service bureau on a nightly basis. It's not really a mirror, but a one-way file transfer. I ended up using File::Find and Net::FTP and my own quick n dirty (ok, more dirty that quick:) code... Let me know if you wan

Re: [MacPerl] FTP mirroring script?

Greetings all, Just a quick reference for people trying to reinvent this particular wheel (not that there's anything wrong with that...) You might want to compare your solutions with what Gerard Lanois put together for the Perl Journal a couple of years ago. Might at least stir up a couple of id

[MacPerl] mirror() in LWP::Simple and Runtimes...

Hey guys. I'm using the mirror() routine from LWP::Simple on the Mac. All works wonderfully under MacPerl *until* I try to make a Mac runtime. Then the mirror() doesn't work. get() works fine and as expected. Case in point. This script compiles fine and spits out the file contents: use strict;

[MacPerl] Re: mirror() in LWP::Simple and Runtimes...

Here's even more info about my problem. This is fun. The following code runs fine from the "command line", as it were, but dies with the following error as soon as I try to compile a MacApp: 501 # Protocol scheme 'http' is not supported File 'Dev:Pseudo:LWP:UserAgent.pm'; Line 185 http://www.

[MacPerl] GD.pm on OSX

Has anyone installed GD.pm on OSX yet? I've tried a few times and GD.pm complained that libgd and libpng are out of date. I've installed pre-compiled binaries of both of these that I got from http://www.mosxsw.com/port/. They look to me like the latest versions. Anyone have a clue as to what I'm
