mc - Cool!  Check out "Beginning Perl" by Simon Cozens, too.  I just got
it (I admit it - I am addicted to books) and it feels more accessable to
me than the Llama. Sometimes with technical books, you'll find that two
good ones complement each other, so I plan on working from both. I wish
tech books weren't so expensive, but then the market is certainly
smaller than for romance novels.  Luckily, I have some good jobs lined
up for this week.. :-)

Cheers,

Malke
