Tell me, fellow monks, if this has ever happened to you...

I found myself rushing out the door, with my laptop. Then as I get on the train, I begin to work on my script which is just working with directories. I was missing a piece of information about the proper way to stat the modtime of a file. I was looking on my Perl CD Bookshelf CD and could not find it. I then realized this information was in a great tutorial in our very Monastery.

I feel that just like the Perl Journal has a book of code examples and good articles, there should be a good book about the Wonderful Goings-On in the Monastery.

I look forward to information that may point to a more CONCISE overview of all of the information found in these hallowed walls. I, myself, today will be using HTTRACK to download all of the Tutorials to HTML files on my local workstation so I can take them with me


Look forward to hearing from you all

• Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
• Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:

  <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>

• Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
• Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
