<set followups to c.l.p.m, as this reply deals only with Perl> I'm torn between knowing that I shouldn't feed trolls, and my hatred of leaving faulty information about Perl unchecked, where some unsuspecting newbie might stumble across it. So to those newbies, you should know that just because this clown doesn't think there's a way, does not in any way imply that there actually isn't a way. For a list of standard modules included in your distribution of Perl, run the following command in your shell: perldoc perlmodlib To get a list of non-standard modules that have already been installed, read the documentation for the ExtUtils::Installed module: perldoc ExtUtils::Installed To see what other modules are available to be downloaded, visit http://www.cpan.org Paul Lalli -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
