Maus, Jr.) Date: Thu Aug 5 00:29:12 2004 Subject: MCPM: Perl Tip Of The Day - Updating ActiveState ActivePerl HTML documentation Message-ID: <3CE6F390.9FED8174@monmouth.com> Howdy, For those of you using ActiveStates ActivePerl distribution (www.activestate.com) on Windows platforms, you may have discovered when using PPM (Perl Package Manager) to install or update modules, that the HTML Documentation (ActivePerl Help) is not updated. Personally, I think PPM should offer this service as a configurable option, but until that time you can use the following Perl script: #!perl use ActivePerl::DocTools; ActivePerl::DocTools::UpdateHTML(); I'm also guessing that the same situation and solution applies to the Linux and Solaris versions of ActivePerl. YMMV. Enjoy, Rick -- Richard L. Maus, Jr. (Rick) Home: 732-863-7367 rmaus@monmouth.com http://www.monmouth.com/~rmaus -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Andy Attention Morris County.pm Members --- Manning Publications announces the release of: Graphics Programming with Perl By Martien Verbruggen To learn more about this book and find out how to get a free copy for your group, please read more ... Greenwich, Connecticut, May 2002 - Graphics Programming with Perl is a guide to the graphics and imaging modules and tools available to the Perl programmer. It covers subjects ranging from drawing pictures and dynamic graphics for web pages to rendering three-dimensional scenes and manipulating individual image pixels. The text is liberally illustrated with example code and programs that show how to achieve common, and sometimes not so common, graphics programming tasks. For the even less common tasks, the book shows developers how to write their own modules. What's Inside - * How to create charts and graphs * Serving graphics content to the WWW with CGI * How to modularize your graphics code, and re-use it * Code to manipulate image pixels (and how to do it fast) * How to work with text in graphics * A complete reference for Image::Magick * Usable examples on adding watermarks to images, creating thumbnails, dynamic web pages with charts, building convolution filters; a web photo album, 3D animation with OpenGL and Renderman About the Author - A developer, architect and systems administrator, Martien Verbruggen is the author of the GD::Graph charting module and the GD::Text modules. He is a regular contributor to the Perl Usenet groups. Martien lives in Sydney, Australia, with his wife and daughter. About Manning Publications Co.
