I am sorry to sound like a lammer but..... I am having too much trouble trying to start macperl, I bought the "teach yourself Perl 5 in 21 days" book and am egarly waiting instruction on how to use the MacPerl application, the read me file and help are of no real use, COULD SOMEONE PLEASE and tell me a step by step process of how you write, and execute your first perl script. thanks in advance, rwilke@primenet.com
