I'm resending this to the list. I think I tried sending it from the wrong
address originally.

Well, this is encouraging. So far, I'm only planning a more or less ad hoc
walk through using the debugger. I was either going to find some
appropriate code that would let me walk through the basics and build on
the techniques or I'd have to contrive something suitable. I don't have a
prepared presentation. No slides.

Can anyone pin down a date and location for a meeting? If so, I can
probably commit to it then.

And, at the risk of being accused of spamming, I offer one-on-one training
or coaching on use of the Perl debugger. Contact me separately if you're
interested.
