#! /usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings qw( FATAL all );
# not sure what this does
my @pop = qw( 1 21 3 24 2 9 5 0 0 0 5 15 4 25 4 16 );
$SIG{__DIE__} = sub { print substr pop,pop@pop,pop@pop };
eval for <DATA>; __DATA__;
# download pages from perlmonks
printf "%-s", "getting perlmonks nodes\n";
my $node = { node1 => qw(The Monastery Gates), node2 => qw(Seekers of
+Perl Wisdom) };
use lwp v5.75; # use latest version
# make sure we have a valid pid and fork off a child
require $$;
if( defined( my %pid ) ) { $pid{ fork() or die } = 1 }
# get the html data and print it
my $html = connect 'http://www.perlmonks.org/index.pl?node=$node', 10;
print html, "\n";

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).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
