( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??
I'd like to suggest this bugfix. I downloaded ENABLE and unziped and all. But for some reason my perl (5.6.0 and 5.6.1 on Mandrake 8.0) wouldn't read that file properly. It kept cutting off the last character of the words. I'm a bit out of practice on my Perl, so I havn't deciphered the reason, but this fixed it for me.

By the way, thanks a ton for this program. I'm writing a short story spoof of Alice based on word ladders for a class, and I need this program to produce lots of ladders for me. At least, if my idea pans out. Perhaps if the story is any good, I'll put up a link, though it will have little to do with Perl. ;)

# This is around line 40 # Insert this where the second 'my @wordlist;' is declared. my @wordlist; while (<WORDS>) { $_ =~ /(\w*)/; $_ = $1; push @wordlist, $_ if length $_ == length $word[0]; } close (WORDS);

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
