Hi folks.
I'm trying to write a program that reads my Wiki source files (each page
is a file, in a very text format, where ASCII formatting conventions
are the mark up language).
I can't get L<> to work. I've read perlpodspec.
In http://www.perldoc.com/perl5.8.0/pod/perlpodspec.html#About-L%3c...%3e-Codes
it claims that L will display Link Text as a link to Anchor
in the current document, where Anchor is marked up as:
=head2 Anchor
(or another head, or =item).
Nothing. I get thousands of lines of output like:
/usr/bin/pod2html: perldesignpatterns.pod: cannot resolve L in paragraph 7. at /usr/share/perl/5.6.1/Pod/Html.pm line 1562.
In the perldesignpatterns.pod, down a ways, is:
=head2 FlyweightPattern
...in a paragraph by itself.
I'm using the pod2html from 5.6.1 to test with. pod2latex works fine, but it doesn't
actually compute anchors, as far as I know, so it really wouldn't care about whether
or not a link target exists.
Other "obvious" permutations of using L<> also end is failure.
Thoughts, suggestions, flames, anyone?
Also, does anyone know what parser is used at perldoc.com that produces such lovely output?
Thanks!

Argh. Once again, I didn't get the original announcement, but instead
sometimes reply to it. Either my mail isn't working, or else the list
is on the fritz again. May be if we reply to this enough times everyone
will eventually get it...
In other news, upgrade your sendmail if you have version 8.12.6 or
before unless you want guests - yes, that was the current version.

Hrm. I think the problem may be then that pod2html doesn't
understand forward references. Due to the nature of this application,
most references are forward references (table of contents at the beginning).
Thanks Bill. I guess I just need people around me to tell me I'm nuts ;)

Hi folks.
I'm trying to squeeze every ounce of performance possible out of my server
machine, the Apple 7300/180 (the 180 is for 180 mhz).
I have one script that is getting hit a lot and should respond quickly,
and supposedly, Perl spends a lot if not most of its time just parsing
the source code, so I gave perlcc a whirl.
To those not familiar, perlcc lets perl parse the program, than dumps
the symbol table and opcode tree as a bunch of C datastructures,
pre initialized, along with the glue needed to link to libperl,
saving a program from having to parse the .pl file.
normal perlcc binary
wiki.cgi .301 + .678 .361 + 1.547
assemble.cgi 1.607 + 1.191 1.653 + 2.509
Time is user time + system time.
Instead of being faster, a compiled binary is slower.
The perlcc binary takes marginally more user time, but more than twice as
much system time. Short of profiling the exe and perl, which I don't even
know how to do, does anyone know why this might be? The binaries
are around 2 megs, so they should be competitive with the memory footprint
of perl itself. Perhaps time spent in ld, linking to the shared library?
Time spent doing VM stuff?
Of course, I could do FastCGI or something, but I'm curious =)
It's hard to imagine that the Perl parser is faster at constructing an
opcode tree than just bringing an already compiled one in from disc.
Thanks,
-scott

Scott:
Just got back on line a couple of days ago. My reaction exactly to the
posted ad.
But you really gotta watch the spelling/grammar/other stuff (you were pissed
off, I totally understand), or you will end up looking almost as bad as they
do. If we are to be successful at letting these little incompetent tyrants
get the message, we have to be diligent, OK?
Thanks,
Hal

I'm out. Send any bail money you raised to the Perl Foundation. Hey,
why are the meetings that don't happen more exciting than the ones that
do? :)

I was going through boxes in the garage, cleaning up and clearing
out, when I ran across a stack of Perl Journals. A complete run
from #1-#20.
Anyone here interested in them?

Sure! I'd like to barrow them for, eh, research, yeah, research
for http://wiki.slowass.net/?PerlDesignPatterns - if someone else
wants them too, I'd be happy to just barrow them for a week
then pass them on.
Or, if people like, I can take them and put them up for loan
on http://wiki.slowass.net/?BookShelf
I'd really like to put BookShelf on phoenix.pm.org, but I don't
know about the legalities or appropriateness of it. I myself
am hesitent - but if encouraged and there are no objections
and someone can dispell my concerns, I'll do that.
I have a policy of not buying any book I can exhaust in a
few days. I'll read them at the book store and leave them there.
A truely engaging book, though, finds its way home with me somehow =]
Re: the meeting that didn't happen, Bill and I showed up severely
late and found no one there (leading to the supposition that it was
busted up).
Cheers,
-scott

Ah yes. Jules's Own Version of the International
Algorithmic Language. It was a dialect of ALGOL
(the original block-structured language) that was
used by the Air Force, I believe, and also by
U.S. Steel in a special purpose system that Burroughs
was building for it ... I was a technical writer
on the project in 1968.
I'm not knitting. I'm working clerical jobs during
the day, and hacking Perl for a much better rate
(though not like the Old Days) at night.
Oh yes ... JOVIAL is sort of a great-granduncle of
Perl, since JOVIAL was a ALGOL's errant son and
Perl is descended partly from C which is definitely
descended partly from ALGOL, maybe with PL/I in
the chain somewhere in between.
With Perl, we don't need no other stinkin' languages.
P.S. -- I also programmed under *GCOS, which is
memorialized by a field in Unix's password file.
Vic
* Did that as recently as 1995.
