in reply to Seeker of Perl Code Review

i think program is nice except for certain thing..

a) i thing it will be nicer if you could put the numbering all within one separate column(TD) rather than having it together with the code so that people can just highlight and copy code straight from the output. and not messing up with the line number

b) i guess the font is quite big especially when you want to show large program. coz people dont really like to scroll too much..

well.. i'm only giving my opinion towards your prog. btw, good job that you have done there..

    Thank you for your comments! I will definately look into separating the line numbers into <TD>'s. The reason I chose to go with the all-in-one originally was that it was easiest (psh! laziness!) and smallest (separating the line numbers will require me to print many more <PRE> tags where-as I have all of it in one large <PRE> tag now) but I realize now that people may indeed want to have a copy of the code (I do have a tar-ball of the code available; see one of my previous replies).

    As for the font, I set the default Style to the one I like best (I happen to use that scheme in VIM; though VIM doesn't handle several constructs properly that my module does) but there are several other pre-defined Styles available, as well as a page for creating your own (or customizing one of the pre-defined ones). You can even change the font! :-)

    Well, thanks again for taking the time to look it over and reply! Let me know if you get the chance to look at the module code. :-)
