Ha!  If you want the lurid details, you'll have to hunt me down and
get them personally.  I won't put them onto the Internet.  It's a good
list of things not to do, though.  Obtuse algorithms, crazy code . . .
when I took a look, I couldn't *believe* some of the stuff I saw.

Anyway.

Vacation was GREAT.  I should do it more often.  We were out in 
Palmdale, California, which is always a super destination if you
like things that go Zoom! in the sky.  One of my sister's friends
works for Boeing's Reusable Space Systems, and got us in to Site 1,
which in English means that we got a close-up and very cool look at the
shuttle Columbia, which is in the plant getting a major systems refitting
(heads-up avionics, etc.)  We walked over it, under it, and around it,
but didn't get to sit in the pilot's seat and play with the steering
wheel, and they didn't want me carving my initials in the heat-shield
tiles -- fussbudgets!  Then I came home to Boulder and got 3 days of
climbing in.

Then when I punched in for work on Monday, I sent an e-mail around to
staff notifying them that I had 2,664 pieces of e-mail waiting for me,
and that they should *call* for anything important, but be patient
otherwise.  Now, systems folks get a lot of automated e-mail when 
different events happen, and I was able to go through those pretty
quickly, but the sheer number seems to have shocked general staff into
leaving me alone.  It's been a quiet week so far.

Ach, some Perl schtuff -- via some excerpts of am e-mail I sent today.
If you already know this stuff, just say (quietly, to yourself!)  "Hmph!
I know THAT!" and delete the message ;^)

---------- Excerpts follow ----------

Anyway, your code looks good.  I can think of pissy little changes like

< my $lttf_adm = "xxxxx\@xxxxx.ac.nz";
> my $lttf_adm = 'xxxxx@xxxxx.ac.nz';

but the only substantive change I'd recommend is to include $! in your
dienice stuff.

Stylistically, I'll comment on your print statements.  It looks like
you've adhered to the "best practices" methodology of cut-and-paste
programming  ;^)

What I mean is that I see a mix of styles (which I do also):

print MAIL "Something or other\n";
print <<MARKER;
  dum
  de dum
  de dum
MARKER

I find that

  print MAIL "Something or other\n";

is good for single lines of text, and I use the "print from" stuff
almost exclusively for shooting out HTML, since I get to avoid all
the \n and " and escaping that obscures the HTML.

I also use, when doing single lines of HTML,

  print qq{<a href="yaya.html">Get rich NOW! !!</a>};

which also lets me avoid a proliferation of quotation marks and the
visually yukky escape stuff.  This one is kinda undocumented (or at
least hard to find).  See the "print" entry in the perlfunc manpage,
and the section on "Quote and Quote-like Operators" in the perlop
manpage.

But the code looks good.  This is all trivial stuff and intended in
the spirit of "there's more than one way to do it."  Either that or
I'm in a chatty mood today . . .

How about passing them in by reference:

Hi, Dave,

It's being posted because we had a thread on job postings back in October
and decided that Perl-related job postings once in a while were okay.

If you think there's an abusive number being forwarded, we can revisit the
issue.

Ah.

&DoStuff( \@Arr1, \@Arr2 );

sub DoStuff {
    my ( $a, $b ) = @_;
    # You can now reference the stuff from @Arr1 as @$a and @Arr2 as @$b
}


There's a section on this in Programming Perl (pp. 116-118 in my copy)
and also in the Perl Cookbook (pp. 342-343).

Isn't the purpose of this list to promote Perl?  If so, what better
promotion than to say you can get a job with these skills?

IMHO, job postings on the list, as long as they are relevant, and don't
drown out the other postings are useful.

Subject: [boulder.pm] break a while(<F>) and better grep?
Message-ID: <20000513225102.J19327@rnd-consulting.com>



Currently I have a script that walks a bunch of directories.  It opens
each file and reads it with a:

while(<File>) {
  if (<$String>) {
    do stuff;
  }
}
  

Part of the problem is I want it to break out of the while at the first
time it finds $string, but not the loop that the while is in.  Will
a "break" do this clean?  Something else? 

Is there a faster way to grep a string out of a file, without actually
doing a system('grep')?  I just need to know if the string is in the
file.

The keyword "last" works like "break" does in C:

while(<File>) {
  if (<$String>) {
    do stuff;
    last;
  }
}

This will take you out of the while(<File>) loop without taking you out
of a loop that contains this code.

System will at least tell you if the string is in the file, even if it
does spawn a whole new process.  As far as I know, your only alternative
is to traverse the file and try to match the string to each line.

FOO: while(1) {
 BAR: while(1) {
  BAZ: while(1) {
   if($magic==  42) { last FOO; } # break out of top loop
   if($magic==0x42) { last BAR; } # break out of middle loop
   if($magic== 666) { last BAZ; } # break out of bottom loop
  }
 }
}

last and break should be interchangable when you're giving the name.
next <name> also exists. I believe this is discussed in the perlsyn
man page.

$kungfu = <FILE>;
close(FILE);
if($kungfu =~ /string/) {

I am looking for a script that will run on an apache website that will
dynamically produce a text-only version of the pages.
It needs to work with java script and server side includes.
Anyone seen anything good?


Thanks
Ray

Hi, Ray,

Are you looking for something that when run with a URL as an "argument"
will return a formatted text version of that URL?  Or am I missing the
idea?

Yes I think so. I have 4 web sites that need to have a text only version. So I
want to be able to put a text-only button on the page and run a script or use
arguments. I have tried nph-filter and parser but they both have a hard time
with the javascript menus..

Hmmm.  My first thought on this is that most people who want to lose the
images don't want anything to do with the Javascript either.

But you need the Javascript.  I don't know of any existing scripts to
do this.  You could poke around freshmeat.net et al., but I dunno that
you'd find anything.

I guess you'd get the page, s/// out the <IMG> tags, and send out the
new page.  Or substitute them with a one-blank-pixel.gif type of link?

No doubt this is a naive approach, forgetting many oopsies.
But maybe someone has done this and can correct me . . . ?
