I just posted this, copied FYI... -r Subject: Perl Usage Survey - MacPerl Needs You! Newsgroups: comp.sys.mac.programmer.misc, comp.sys.mac.programmer.tools,comp.sys.mac.advocacy The Perl Institute (http://www.perl.org) is conducting an informal survey (http://www.perl.org/cgi-bin/survey) to find out which oper- ating systems are being used by the Perl programming community. After several days of voting, 1176 individuals have responded. The MacPerl community is still on the chart, but we need a few more of you to vote, lest we get swamped by the ravening Unix and Windows hordes! Linux 704 Win 95, 98, NT 584 Solaris 546 SunOS 315 -> MacOS 278 HP-UX 214 IRIX 160 Free-, Net-, OpenBSD 158 AIX 146 DEC Unix, OSF/1 130 If you are using MacPerl, please add your vote, to tell the Perl com- munity that MacPerl is working for you! If you AREN'T using MacPerl, visit the MacPerl Pages (http://www.ptf.com/macperl) and see what you've been missing! MacPerl is a Mac-optimized port of Perl 5, supporting Apple Events, AppleScript and TCP/IP network programming, the Mac OS Toolbox, and a great deal more! MacPerl, like Perl, is freely redistributable in both source code and binary form. MacPerl is supported by an active email list and a knowledgeable and helpful user community. -r Rich Morin: rdm@cfcl.com, +1 650-873-7841, http://www.ptf.com/~rdm Prime Time Freeware: info@ptf.com, +1 408-433-9662, http://www.ptf.com MacPerl: http://www.ptf.com/macperl, http://www.ptf.com/ptf/products/MPPE MkLinux: http://www.mklinux.apple.com, http://www.ptf.com/ptf/products/MKLP ***** Want to unsubscribe from this list? ***** Send mail with body "unsubscribe" to mac-perl-request@iis.ee.ethz.ch
