Early this year we set up a TWiki based wiki at work to provide a convenient way to document stuff relating to our software development. I had a few Word documents that I really wanted to get into the Wiki. Someone had mentioned to me that Perl was the thing for manipulating text, so I decided to save the Word documents as HTML and use Perl to convert the HTML to TWiki markup. Along the way I dicovered PerlMonks and my journey really started. I now consider that I have a modest knowledge of Perl and am aware that there are gaping holes in my Perl knowledge, which are slowly being filled by reading material posted here, and often by researching for my self to find answers to questions posted here. Having discovered Perl and PerlMonks (and the Perl Monks), I am now the Perl Guru at work (there are four other people using it there to varying degrees), and am using it to create all sorts of quick helper scripts (see for example Open diff windows looking at CVS file merge conflicts). Exciting times! Perl is Huffman encoded by design. In reply to Re: My first approach to Perl. How has been yours?
