You propose to your girlfriend with a script!! I know its corny, but she loved it! She's learning Linux, and some programming stuff, so I thought it would be cute. I had her run it in front of our friends. I'm a new daddy and now I'm getting married in August! Wooo Hooo!!

BTW: I didn't use strict cause I was in a hurry and left it out. Bad Practice, I know I know..

#!/usr/bin/perl -wT
sub love {
    local ( $first, $last ) = @_;

    print "\nWill You Marry Me, $first $last ??\n";
    chomp( $love = <STDIN> );
    if ( $love =~ /yes/ ) { &yes }
    else { print "Error no 1 Kernel Failure Shutting Down\n" }
}

sub yes {

    print "\nGood!!  I couldn't live without you!!\n\n";
    print "
      ****     ****
     ******* *******
     ***************
      *************
        *********
          *****
            *
\n";

}

my $a = Danyeal;
my $b = Waddell;

&love( $a, $b );

• 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.
