Re: CPAN module fior common idioms?

Only slightly dated, but chock full if idioms. I'd love to hear if it has anything in it that's fallen out of favor, or might be considered harmful.

Edit: s/Efficient/Effective/ -- Um, right. Sorry. I swear a google search on efficient turned up that exact title. I always get that wrong. :)

If there's a bunch of neat snippets in a book, why aren't those snippets in some set of CPAN modules? That's my point. ------ We are the carpenters and bricklayers of the Information Age.

Er, because it's such a good idea and so useful, that they'd be crazy not to publish it instead of giving it away for free? Seriously though, you're right, it would be very nice to have such a CPAN entry. I mentioned it mostly for those who didn't know about it since it is such a good read.	[reply]
