Big pain in the neck for me was that on *NIX machines you could do:
print "Hello\n";
and everything works just dandy. Where as if you run the same code with say ActiveState, you will actually get an extra \r\n at the end of your print statement. So from a formatting perspective, keep that in mind...I am sure there is probably a way to get around it, but I am lazy, so I just change it to
print "Hello";
and it works the same.
Just something to keep in mind!

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).
