in reply to An Object: Perlmonks Website

I get it, you are describing your Perlmonks experience using a kind of symbolic notation. If I may extend on your thinking, a way would be needed to incorporate multitasking. I often have a CB client open along with SoPW, CPAN, several tabs for various documents, a text editor and several Xterm windows for running code.

Other monks would require an interupt based model. I know that some use chat bots, news bots and/or Rss feeds.

We could use callbacks or signals but most OO implementations are designed to obscure a lot of OS dependancies like execution order or resource blocking so to examine those issues would require specific symbols in your language set.
