in reply to Far More than Everything You've Ever Wanted to Know about Prototypes in Perl -- by Tom Christiansen

Thanks for that, liverpole. I keep a copy on my hard disk, but...

This piece should really have been included into the FMTEYEWTK compilation - or wherever appropriate - on perl.org long ago. IIRC the FMTEYEWTK compilation is authored by Tom Christiansen, so I wonder why this particularly enlightening writing isn't included.

update: it looks like the ftp site ftp.perl.org is empty now. Tom Christiansens compilation can be found, at the moment (2011-05-27), at perl.com. Thanks for the hint, kennethk.
