Me again <g>. I've started going through the ::Tutorial, with an eye to adding, updating, and revising things. So far:
* corrected some spelling and punctuation errors. * replaced "listserv" with "mailing list". Listserv is a copyrighted product name, and I've been C&D'd before. * Added MARC::Lint to the list of modules installed with MARC::Record. Which brings me to my first question: why isn't MARC::File::XML installed with it? Next up, I've been using the camel.usmarc file as the "file.dat" equivalent in all the examples. When I ran the first example, I got: ActivePerl with ASP and ADO / Tobias Martinsson. ... Cross-platform Perl / Eric F. Johnson. which confused me. Is the "title" of a book always considered the title AND author? Or is the "author" and "statement of responsibility" the .. . . same thing? Does $a always end in a slash if $b doesn't exist? What if $a, $h, $p, $b, and $c are all used? Is that order (per the LC UMB doc) the method they should be strung together, separated by slashes? Is the ending period, generated by MARC::Batch an AACR thingy, or just convention? -- Morbus Iff ( bah! ) Technical: http://www.oreillynet.com/pub/au/779 Culture: http://www.disobey.com/ and http://www.gamegrene.com/ icq: 2927491 / aim: akaMorbus / yahoo: morbus_iff / jabber.org: morbus
