00:19 <****> which book is "on the gripping hand" from?
00:19 <****> I know the context but have not read the book
00:19 <****> Mote in God's Eye.
00:19 <****> Pournelle.
00:19 <****> The Gripping Hand was a sequel written 18 years later.
00:20 <****> beats saying "on the other other hand"
00:20 <****> Works hand in hand with it, actually. :)
00:20 <****> how do i use pod
00:21 <****> noon - just a sec
00:21 <****> "perldoc perlpod"
00:21 <****> and something I started with just now:
00:21 <****> I am looking for Juerd's "POD in 5 minutes" tutorial
00:21 <****> http://juerd.nl/site.plp/perlpodtut
00:21 <****> http://perlmonks.org/?node_id=252477
00:22 <****> Have a good night, all. =wave=
00:22 <****> TTFN
00:22 <****> well, nevermind then
00:30 <****> hi
00:30 <****> 'lo
00:35 <****> I have a subroutine and I want to give it a second name (so abc() and def() will point to the same code), how do I do this correctly? *abc = \&def ?
00:36 <****> Is there an all in one perl installer for windows that will setup env variables etc?
00:36 <****> i think my current winxp perl install is foobard
00:36 <****> hello sirs and madams, perl noob here; i'm trying to print the attributes from the xml listed here, but am unable to actually print their values; what am i doing wrong? http://pastebin.ca/766571
00:37 <****> ribasushi: why cant you just do "sub def(){ abc(); }"
00:37 <****> Two sub calls.
00:37 <****> I think the real question is why have the same sub with two different names.
00:37 <****> and what's with the prototype?
00:38 <****> force of habit sorry
00:38 <****> *alias = \ &orig; is correct
00:38 <****> GumbyBRAIN: THE MAN IS KEEPIN ME DOWN
00:38 <****> Man that was found out that you mentioned that to me. They said awful things, but i'm attributing that to become a problem, instead of just about to wait is the constant fake_no_mail_send in the world do you need to chomp $inputname.
00:38 <****> Get lost GumbyBRAIN
00:39 <****> GumbyBRAIN: get lost.
00:39 <****> Get lost gumbybrain.
00:39 * iank stabs bobsapp in the eye
00:39 <****> O_*
00:39 <****> heh
00:39 * Zoffix_ stabs BobSapp in the other eye
00:39 <****> GumbyBRAIN, we'll save you!!!
00:39 <****> in canada, "rye whisky" does not fail, and changing things, and i can save you anything is plz?
00:39 <****> p_*
00:39 <****> the whisky explains a few things about GumbyBRAIN
00:40 <****> Zoffix: because one goes into UNIVERSAL
00:40 <****> blocked with monacle
00:40 * Supaplex twaps BobSapp in the nose with a fat rubber band *POW*
00:40 <****> Zoffix: it is a sub that can be called both as a method and as a sub, thus I want it to actually be the same
00:40 * BobSapp is invulnerable to rubber bands
00:40 <****> +10 rubber band resistance
00:44 <****> damn i need 2 enter my sleep cycle again
00:50 <****> heh, sounds like me :)
00:50 <****> Except I take sleeping pills when the need arises :)
00:51 <****> how do i convert this into seconds since 1970 Thu Nov 08 23:17:18 UTC 2007
00:51 <****> looks like a mysql datetime, no?
00:52 <****> so DateTime::Format::Mysql would give you a datetime object
00:52 <****> which is much more useful than seconds since the epoch
00:52 <****> not mysql
00:52 <****> oh, no. point
00:52 <****> mysql format is yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss
00:53 <****> but there's bound to be a DateTime::Format module that'll handle it
00:53 <****> but yeah, some format, I was just loading the page to look myself. :) http://datetime.perl.org/?Modules
00:53 <****> heeen: where are you getting that value from?
00:53 <****> mst: some generated xml file
00:53 <****> DateTime-Format-ISO8601?
00:54 <****> heeen: use Date::Parse, it handles that properly
00:54 <****> heeen: perl -MDate::Parse -le 'print scalar gmtime(str2time("Thu Nov 08 23:17:18 UTC 2007"))'
00:55 <****> ah, this one will handle it. DateTime::Format::DateParse
00:55 <****> ah, me too slow
00:55 <****> or POSIX::strptime
00:56 <****> eval: use Date::Parse; print scalar gmtime(str2time("Thu Nov 08 23:17:18 UTC 2007"));
00:56 <****> So this #perl is a help channel?
00:56 <****> sort of mixed help channel and random crap
00:56 <****> GumbyBRAIN, random crap!
00:57 <****> much like any channel that survives being a help channel some of the time
00:57 <****> Somebody said yea that was half in, thought it was crap.
00:57 <****> Ok, as long as it isn't the other #perl.
00:57 <****> er, no.
00:57 <****> no, this #perl is about Perl
00:57 <****>
00:57 <****> though... the other channel appears to be on the wrong network.
00:57 * dkr wonders what the "other #perl" could possibly be
00:58 <****> jjore-w: infobot/magnet was its own thing for a -long- time before irc.perl.org became a hostname for it
00:58 <****> Yes, that's how I hear it happened.
00:59 <****> don't forget the now defunct efnet #perl :)
00:59 <****> though I also hear irc.perl.org#perl used to be a lot less antisocial, too
00:59 <****> THE PERL IS A LIE.
00:59 <****> THE CAKE IS A LIE
00:59 <****> THE CAKE IS NOT A LIE.
00:59 <****> I have seen it.
00:59 <****> GumbyBRAIN: cake
00:59 <****> I hear that's a pretty fun game.
00:59 <****> Purl, quote cake.
01:00 <****> GumbyBRAIN, this channel is all about dongs
01:00 <****> What do you want to match at all is the same channel.
01:00 <****> buu: http://the-whiteboard.com/autowb845.html
01:01 <****> mst: That's.. terrible.
01:01 <****> And creepily furry.
01:05 <****> "COUNTER"} @players );
01:05 <****> whats wrong here
01:06 <****> when using zip, the -r option is creating directories with the full path of the directory in the zip archive:
