Acknowledgments
To Larry Wall, for writing Perl.
To the excellent Perl programmers who reviewed this book—J. Eric Townsend, Rafe Colburn, Chris Spurgeon, and Ian McKallen—for being so good at finding my mistakes and confusions and offering helpful suggestions for “Other Ways To Do It.”
To the perl.ind conference on the WeLL—ditto.
To all the nice folks at Sams Publishing for being very patient indeed during the writing of this book.
And to Eric, for everything, not the least of which was introducing me to Perl a long, long time ago.
—Laura Lemay
I'd like to thank the staff at Sams for their patience, support, and encouragement. And, as always, I'd like to thank my wife—she's a rock.
—Rafe Colburn
