[pm-h] turn off perl mode in emacs

That'd be fun, here's a rough outline:

* emacs, 101
  * commands
  * config file
  * modes
  * macros
  * shell-mode
  * org-mode
* working with perl in emacs
  * cperl-mode
  * perltidy-mode
* emacs commands in the terminal (that didn't know you knew)

I gave a presentation just last week to my coworkers on GNU Screen, so
I could potentially present on that too.

How many of you out there would be interested in an emacs and/or GNU
Screen presentation?
