Re: porting perl scripts to php

Al -- You have started a new thread by taking an existing message and replying to it while merely changing the Subject: line. That is bad, because it breaks threading. Whenever you reply to a message, your mail client generates a "References:" header that tells all recipients to which posting(s) your posting refers. A mail client uses this information to build a "thread tree" of the postings so that it is easy to see just how they relate to each other. With your posting style you successfully torpedoed this useful feature; your posting shows up within an existing thread even though it is completely unrelated. Always do a fresh post when you want to start a new thread. That means that you do not select any sort of "Reply" when you start your message. You can save the list address in your address book (or equivalent) for convenience. ..and then admin@datazap.net said... % % Hi, Hi! % % I was wondering if there is an easy way to port perl scripts to php, or % maybe someone could recommend someone who could help me? The two languages are not terribly different; you may be able to do the porting on your own if you know php. You could exec the perl script and get the result if that setup works for you. I would be happy to be of service if you would like. Feel free to drop me a reply. % % Thanks, % Al HTH & HAND :-D -- David T-G * There is too much animal courage in (play) davidtg@justpickone.org * society and not sufficient moral courage.
