Q&A
| Q1: | I'd really prefer a graphical debugger for Perl. Does such a thing exist? |
| A1: | Yes, there are a few. If you're using Perl under Windows, ActiveState has a very nice graphical debugger. |
| Q2: | What's the main:: stuff that the debugger keeps printing? |
| A2: | It has to do with Perl's package naming conventions. Some of this information will be covered in the next hour, so don't worry too much about it for now. |
| Q3: | Does Perl have other command-line switches? |
| A3: | Yes, several. You can view the full list in the online manual. To access this information, type perldoc perlrun at a command prompt. |
