(jeffa) Re: Modules that you want to know but haven't used yet

SPOPS - i barely scratched the surface of this suite of modules. what i saw was powerful indeed
Image::Magick - i have tried to install this like 5 times now and fail miserably each time, although i do get just a little closer each time
POE - this has got to be good stuff
Net::SSH::Perl - there is no excuse for me not utilizing this suite of modules
Quantum::Superpositions - mmmmm ... quantum logic gates .... (ghaaaahhh)
XML::Twig - now that i think i have exhausted XML::Simple ...
Glade::Perl - but my favorite GUI is a web browser ;)
bioperl - even if i never do get into Bioinformatics, a case study of bioperl's object design and heirarchy will prove to be enlightening
Template-Toolkit - although i am still content with HTML::Template

Oh, almost forgot one - Bundle::Merlyn ;) (read a lot of them, but not all)

Image::Magick - I have tried to install this like 5 times now and fail miserably each time, although i do get just a little closer each time I must say I have never managed to install it. Even when it works, after a clean installation of any good Linux distribution, I inevitably manage to break it when I upgrade Perl. I even suspect that I have broken it when upgrading some of the package it uses. So now I have basically given up on it, I just use `system convert ...`, which always works, and I am much happier!

I've managed to install it... several times. I thought it'd be great since I've been using ImageMagick itself lots earlier, but I never got Image::Magick to work properly. I felt it was both poorly documented, if at all, and really buggy. I also resorted to system commands, because it just works and "good enough". :) It was a while ago though, so maybe I'll give it yet another shot. Maybe. You have moved into a dark place. It is pitch black. You are likely to be eaten by a grue.	[reply]
