#!/usr/local/bin/perl asp

lowhourpilot has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

So sorry.

I've been out of the perl programming business for 10 years, a php programmer by demand. I'm going to create a new place using perl. In the last job I had which used 'perl', all our pages started with #!/user/local/bin/perl asp; code following an obligatory <% appearing below it.

I've got the #!/user/local/bin/perl, but what is the asp (apache module?)

$Response-> constructs are apache... right? How can I forget everything .... AAAAAAAAAAAAA

Please, I'll do the work, but just basically what is going on here? A couple of links would help (Sever is a linux box)

Thank you.

See Apache::ASP and www.apache-asp.org. ŤThe Crux of the Biscuit is the Apostropheť	[reply]

If you are building something new have you considered a modern framework such as https://mojolicious.org/?	[reply]

I'll second this. If you're going to make something new from scratch, and you've forgotten the old stuff anyway, use the state-of-the-art stuff. Mojo also has very nice documentation.	[reply]

Here's a clue for the first bit: ASP. Not something I ever used, but I recognise the abbreviation.	[reply]
