Hi, You can do many things with Perl.
You can write CGI applications for web servers that run under many operating systems including Unix, Macintosh, Windows, and many others. You can write programs that run as a Apache module for the web. You can create a lot of types of programs for monitoring the servers, to process data from many types of sources, you can create html files, pdf files, images, MS Excel files, you can access possibly all the database types under all operating systems where perl can work. You can create programs with a graphical interface for Unix or Windows, and there are more libraries that can be used for that. You can create different type of servers, clients for those servers, messenger clients for the most known messaging systems, programs that can be used to send SMS, and many many other things.

So 'Hello' to every one out there. I am new to Perl and I want to do some project in it. I have some very basic queries in Perl, so thought of writing to the group : 1 Could some suggest me what all I can do in Perl? 2 I also want to know what all are the applications of Perl ? Is it only used for System Admin kind of work or things beyond that ? Kindly excuse me if any of my these basic questions are not permissible to be asked in this group. -- Warm regards, Rajat -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <http://learn.perl.org/> <http://learn.perl.org/first-response>
