I'm back! The macperl preferences lead me to "Other" settings where a button would launch internet config. However, it launched Internet configuration control panel, which did not have any helper setting. Starting Internet Config 1.4 let me set the editor. Question 1, why did I get the control panel and not the application and they seem to be setting different preferences. A neighbor is using Gossamer-threads( http://www.gossamer-threads.com/ )links program on his ISP(unix). He uses and builds his site on Macs. I was trying to look into a problem he was having the ISP cutting him off for excessive cpu time. I though I would try to see how MacPerl would handle it. The first problem I ran into was that the cgi scripts were longer than the MacPerl editor and SimpleText would handle, i.e. BBEdit. I can syntax check the cgi but I can't save it as a CGI since it is not in a MacPerl editor window. Question 2, is how do I save something that is bigger than MacPerl can handle? Thanks Donald Huebschman p.s. The email cgi crashes MacPerl for memory every time I have tried it. ===== Want to unsubscribe from this list? ===== Send mail with body "unsubscribe" to macperl-request@macperl.org
