Do complicated Perl programs really exist?
Maybe a strange thing but I am looking for complicated Perl programs and I cannot find them, don't care how much they
cost a demo is also welcome. I want to test the interpreter.
The full story....
I have succesfully installed: active perl 5.8.8 build 819, komodo 3.5, perl builder 2.0, perl dev kit 6.0.
I downloaded several Perl scripts (all very simple programs) and double clicked on them, nothing happens or the shell window was immediately gone after executing. So I began to use komodo, then you can really see the result of the script.
But I couldn't find 1 normal simple game like pacman or something let alone very complicated programs. Now I am really doubting Perl as a language.
I want to see Perl examples like games that are complicated like midtown madness (complicated car racing game for windows xp). During playing the game I want it to have an interface just like normal game programs like midtown madness.
Is this possible for Perl? Show me! I haven't seen it. When it is possible it should be there, if it isn't there it is not been proven that it is possible.
