Re^3: Simple error

Jshelton31: Welcome to the Monastery.

The recommended max length for posted code is something on the order of 15-20 lines (with the provisos that

The code posted is compilable (passes perl -c script.pl), executable, and produces the same result with which you're dissatisfied
and
When necessary, the posted code may be an adaption of a single small part of a larger program

TTBOMK, NodeReaper has never thrown a violator into the catacombs... permanently, that is. On the other hand, however, some Monks -- this one specifically included -- will not invest hours to solve a problem presented with some 1278 lines of code. Fifteen or twenty lines, yes; on a good day, maybe even more. But not 1278.

So, if you can, create a snippet illustrating the problem. And if the problem is so recalcitrant that you can't demonstrate it in 15 or 20 lines, read Markup in the Monastery, with special attention to the <readmore> tag set.

You're wrong Also, you could have answered the question fifty times in the time its taken you to type up that junk `$ lwp-download "http://perlmonks.com/?displaytype=displaycode;node_id= +975895" foobar.pl 46.3 KB received in 1 seconds (46.3 KB/sec)` [download] `$ ack -A0 "[^-]\btext" NUL foobar.pl ack: NUL: No such file or directory foobar.pl 153: $left_frame->Label(text => "Perl Chat Client v$VERSION") 172: $right_frame->Label(text => 'Buddies') 200: print CONF "# You may edit this file with a text editor or\n +"; 852: # $request is the text of the request 853: # put text of reply into $outbuffer{$client} 1221: print CONF "# You may edit this file with a text editor or\ +n";` [download] `$ perl -MTk -e " tkinit->Label( text => 1 );" unknown option "text" at C:/perl/site/5.14.1/lib/MSWin32-x86-multi-thr +ead/Tk/Widget.pm line 205. at -e line 1.` [download]	[reply] [d/l] [select]

My initial reaction was to admire your method (++) and ignore your initial (tendentious) assertion. But, for the sake of future readers, would you be so good as to post chapter and verse of what's "wrong" with my previous post?	[reply]

But, for the sake of future readers, would you be so good as to post chapter and verse of what's "wrong" with my previous post? The whole thing, from the nonsense about posting too much code, to the pointless regurgitation of How do I post a question effectively?, to the incredulous intimidatory junk about NodeReaper and violators Basically, if you ain't going to help this first time poster, don't bother him while others are actually trying to help him -- don't be a troll It was trivial to help the OP, but you chose to try and be witty -- you weren't witty at all Even the the bit about readmore tags was pointless; Do we need to get "in your face" about readmore-tags? Heck no! For the sake of future seekers of perlmonks wisdom, readmore tags should be automatic -- the OP managed to use code tags, readmore tags should be automatic -- hounding newbies to add readmore tags is waste of time	[reply]
