I love the cdrom i can take anywhere with me.

My only problem is I am new to perl and when trying

to do things I will see code say in chapter 8 of perl

cookbook that uses <FILE> (something similar in name

that is) and there isn't an explaination of how <FILE>

is actually opened.

When I need to know something I don't want to have to

read the previous 7 chapters in an effort to learn it

when I need to know something now, but I will have to

anyways.

I would definately buy other books from O'Reilly.
