Hi Rob,
Thank you for your response, sorry it wasn't as clear as I thought it might
have been.

Hi all,
I have a script which takes a string of alphabetic characters as an argument,
generates all combinations of the characters and all permutations of the
combinations, then looks up each result in a list of valid words, if the result
is a valid word it gets stored in an array.
I would like
Personally, I'd like to see a way of executing a perl script/application in
such a way that Perl runs off and grabs any required modules from CPAN (if the

Hi Sean,
In your given example, $l becomes a link object, so you go:
$l->url(); to get the URL, for example.
After using your code below, look at this page:
http://search.cpan.org/~petdance/WWW-Mechanize-1.66/lib/WWW/Mechanize/Link.pm
That will show you how to use $l.
Hope that helps,
Ben
