Notes
7. ANSI manipulation in Perl
You can go to specified (x,y) positions, clear the screen, and output
colors by using modules from CPAN. Under Windows, you can do this by
installing the Win32::Console::ANSI, Term::ANSIColor, and
Term::ANSIScreen modules. For more information about these modules, check out
http://search.cpan.org/~jlmorel/Win32-Console-ANSI-0.04/ANSI.pm

6. Proxy problems
Fujitsu's not letting my MSI download. I should have grabbed it at
home. Tomorrow, then - just to show them that it _can_ be done... =)

2. Oooh, cool way to split
use Text::ParseWords;
@new = quotewords(",", 0, $text);
use Text::ParseWords; @new = quotewords(",", 0, $text);
1. Perl training
Plan:
- Day 1 morning: What is Perl? Lay of the land
- Day 1 afternoon: Basic syntax, Perl for extracting data
- Day 2 morning: Regular expressions, perl as glue - using Perl to connect two programs
- Day 2 afternoon: Perl as glue - using Perl to connect two programs
- Day 3 afternoon: CPAN
Why use Perl?
- quickly extract information from a lot of data
- write programs that connect two existing programs together
- take advantage of very rich libraries
Script ideas
- extracting top phone callers
- summarizing surveys
