Re: Conan the librarian

Sure! All you need to do is following these simple steps:

Install Perl on your system
Figure out how to have Perl run as a TSR
Figure out how to have Perl monitor your microphone
Figure out how to have Perl determine how loud is too loud
Figure out how to have Perl say something to your speakers
Debug the hell out of it (It is Windows ...)
Release it to CPAN under the name Acme::ConanTheLibrarian

No problem! I'll expect to see the module by Friday, ok?

I have absolutely no clue. :-) But, I bet if you wander around the Win32:: namespace on CPAN, you'll find a few clues. Also, I suggest googling around a bit. If you're implementing this on Windows, Perl may not be the best solution. I'd take a look at JScript, VB, and/or WinScript for alternative languages that might have better API support. You might have to dip in C/C++ and/or Java for some of the hardware stuff. ------ We are the carpenters and bricklayers of the Information Age.
