Title: beginning to read about Perl
Post by: Calum on 16 September 2002, 15:33

I am beginning to read about Perl, and i thought i would post the URLs of the most useful docs i found on the internet to help me get started. I thought i might post a few good URLs for each new subject i start reading, in case others who follow may want to find such information:

http://pluto.phys.nwu.edu/~zhaoyj/learn/Unix-internet/ch05.htm (http://pluto.phys.nwu.edu/~zhaoyj/learn/Unix-internet/ch05.htm)

http://www.webdesigns1.com/perl/tutorial.html (http://www.webdesigns1.com/perl/tutorial.html)

http://www.perl.com/pub/a/2000/10/begperl1.html (http://www.perl.com/pub/a/2000/10/begperl1.html)

now two quick things, can anybody think of a page that i might need to also read once i have read these, and also can i just ask, perl gets interpreted, but is there a way to compile it so it can be run on system where the perl interpreter is not installed?

Regarding compiling your Perl programs into standalone executables use "perlcc".  

http://www.perl.com/doc/manual/html/utils/perlcc.html (http://www.perl.com/doc/manual/html/utils/perlcc.html)

It should be installed if you have Perl installed. Now obviously once compiled it becomes platform dependent.
