Need Help??

meorero has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Nowadays - I heard - it is the 20th birthday of Perl.
Larry himself wrote:

 I released Perl to the comp.sources.misc newsgroup in 1987, and that 
+was the end of Perl version 0.

So...
I'm preparing a lecture about the history of Perl. I want to have a code in Perl 0 or Perl 1.0 and to compare it to a code in Perl of our days.
Does somebody have a Perl code from those early days?
Is there something I can compare to our days?

Have you seen http://dev.perl.org/perl1/? In fact, the Perl 1 mailing list has some activity today. A word spoken in Mind will reach its own level, in the objective world, by its own weight	[reply]

Most probably the perl 0 sources are not available, because according to the perlhist core perldocs, even its release date is classified.	[reply]
