Re^2: Pure Perl - Crop and Resize Jpeg Files

I'd be suprised if PHP,Ruby or Python weren't using GD or Image::Magick as well underneath the hood.

Actually they are, but maybe the modules are already available on the target server for one of these (well probably for PHP indeed), that would ease work quite a bit for the OP.

That's a good point. Though I would think most hosts would have magick or GD on it. As anecdote, don't know wether it's still the case, but Yahoo! Store used GD from within the LISP software. -Lee "To be civilized is to deny one's nature."	[reply]

AFAIK Yahoo Store was entirely rewritten ~~in Java.~~ update:the gory details are certainly available on Paul Graham's website...	[reply]

Never was java. Originally the Store Editor was written in Lisp (with the store manager in C & Perl). Now the editor is in Perl and C. (with client side javascript). -Lee "To be civilized is to deny one's nature."	[reply]
