in thread [perldebugger] calling perldoc from within the debugger

"Actually I'm working a lot within emacs and sepia,"... ah, can I take this opportunity to shill for a discussion group I'm trying to get going about emacs/perl issues?

emacs-perl intersection

(I've actually got some basic questions about sepia I'd like to get answered one of these days...)

    Excellent idea!

    I always had the suspicion that talking about emacs in the monastery is considered OT by the majority ... for sure if talking about elisp.

    Before joining I have to check my "privacy concerns" related to using a google service ...

    You may want to /msg other monks like joost or jplindstrom

    After joining my first question will be how to syntax highlight code in sepia... 8)

    Cheers Rolf

    UPDATE: The alternative could be to flag emacs stuff with a prepended [emacs] like in [emacs] perl info file.

      Yes... not exactly "off-topic", but it's a borderline case. I think there's social pressure against going too far into emacs/perl issues if you're on a forum that's dedicated to just one or the other... So I'm going to see if I can get a cross-over forum going for people who want to geek out about both. We will see how it goes...

        I read Sean's comment about

        I'm either not to eager to do it with google ...

        At the moment I'm checking out if we can establish a English (or biligual) sub-board in http://www.perl-community.de/bat/poard/latest/24h

        It's under active development, RSS, Mailsubscription, Syntax Highlighting Support for a bunch of languages (IMHO including ELISP) and it is Open Source.

        Posting in English shouldn't be a problem...

        BUT it's not a Mailinglist.
