mumble... this thing started to interest me.
Sorry if I'm so late but Perl is starting to exert its charm on me...
In some way it seems C, now I know there is a sort of Object Perl 
and that I can compile it... and finally that there is a easy way to 
access DB...
I have a vague idea of the available literature on Perl but can you 
suggest some book/resource/anything for DBI expecially on Linux 
systems????
