Sorry the 'tutorial' I read said that 'qw' was
pointless, I can see they they just plain suck and I'm
deleting the bookmark as we speak. This tutorial
completely screwed me over and made me confused
(personally I now hate programming and Perl). And I
didn't mean to just send the email to you...Yahoo is a
pain in the ass and I'm tired, I've sent many emails
and I'm forced to enter the list's email address in
the CC everytime. Again Yahoo is a POS. Since I have
transferred to Linux I already miss 2 great software's
from Microsoft...IE and Outlook. I'm sorry, but for
java, Netscape just plain sucks and no email client
(that I know of) will come close to Outlook's
"organize" feature. You also have to understand that
I'm a newbie at programming, you have years of
experience with it, so don't expect me to understand
everything you say. Again thanks for the help and if
you know of a GOOD tutorial out there email the list,
I will look into purchasing 'Learning Perl.'
