in thread Shell style line-editing without benefit of CPAN modules

If you're really curious, pick up a copy of my book. Short version: the will-power and vision of a few key people made it possible. Yes, the community matters but without our librarians we'd just have a bunch of FTP sites like everyone else.

    Hmm, $1.89 for a book that really costs $34.95? Haven't really used this Amazon stuff, but $1.89 I can afford... ;) But, seems little too good to be true though... I mean such a decrease...
      Well, take into account that you can download it for free here: http://apress.com/free/. Sorry, should have mentioned that earlier!

        Hehe, tried to rip me off first eh? :) Now, tell me, why is it free and not? Guess it's getting little old...
