Product Description
The Perl CDROM is based on CPAN, the Comprehensive Perl Archive Network. Larry Wall's Perl combines the best features of C, sed, awk, and sh. Perl is an interpreted language optimized for scanning text files, extracting information, and printing reports. This disc will also provide you with the sources to the latest version of Perl (5.005_03). You also get binary or source versions for Solaris, SunOS, Linux, FreeBSD, Windows NT/98/3.1, Mac, OS/2, DOS, Amiga, and Atari. Perl compiles on over 40 platforms.
