I am now 73 years old and retired one year ago. I used Perl extensively from
1998 until I retired. It can be hard to remember all the tricks, even when you
use or write Perl often. When I learned or developed a useful technique, I

I'm writing some Perl scripts that are for driving the build of some software
for my company. The build runs on Windows machines. We have several build

I'm not being facetious or sarcastic. I characterize OO as "syntactic
sugar" only as a

Devaraja,
Is this a question about vperl?
You speak of generating verilog code. Is the instantiation you speak
