So you're learning Perl, too? That's great.

LinuxChix is all about programmers helping each other. So if you have any 
questions, I'm sure that people here are quite happy to answer them. 
Posting functions just to point out a cool trick you've learned might also 
be okay now and then, but not to be overdone.

As a reminder, LinuxChix's bandwidth is limited. Please post only snippets 
of code to the list. If you want to send the whole program, post a URL or 
send it directly to people who ask for it.

In any case, sure, I would love to see what you've been doing, even if it's 
off-list.

Well, that's original. But so much the better: there are already enough 
open-source web browsers, text editors, debugging tools, etc.

Uh, I'm used to LAMP standing for Linux, Apache, MySQL and PHP.   :-)
