I understand that some folks learn that way, but I learn better when I
focus on the task at hand and look at examples. If I try to read about
EVERY feature in the language, I usually just get overwhelmed. I agree
that learning some fundamentals (chunks is a great example) is really
necessary, but when it comes to more specialized facilities (such as the
FTP and URL stuff that I've been doing today), I would forget it all
before I ever had to lose it.
I think some people just learn differently than others.

How many other multi-platform programming language have your learned,
and how much less time did they take to master?
Sorry, Richard, but I think this is out of line here. I don't really
know where I learned about the backslash, but it ain't easy finding
out what the line continuation character is unless you ask it here.
It's certainly not obvious from searching through the documentation,
and if it's in there I couldn't say where it is. I learn a lot by
looking at other people's code, but not everyone has the same style of
learning.
