Apple is Unix going on 15 years now and no Apple forum I know is geared towards programming but applications and power-user tricks and such… I think networking (Bonjour is mDNS) questions are completely on point here. OS X is a wonderful dev/home platform for me and I’m always interested in Perl questions and code that relate to it.
(Update, I think the platform war stuff is silly. I do think the language war^W competition is real and I’ll go out of my way if I can to help someone get something working in Perl just to show that Python isn’t the end of the story.)

But your own comment about Apple was unresponsive and tendentious. Just because you and a handful of minority monks advertise Microsoft here every day does not mean that we actually use Microsoft. Most of us don't. Your attack against Apple was duly noted and retaliated against. Let us remind you that typos like the one you left sitting for well over 2 hours are unacceptable. Calling the OP lazy when you are even lazier is simply hypocritical. | [reply] |
"Your attack against Apple was duly noted and retaliated against.
Which attack was that? I defy any reasonable person to find an 'attack' in my mention of Apple -- which, just BTW and as an afterthought, might be read as an implicit suggestion that OP either (1)find out or (2)tell us (benighted *nix and Win users) to what end the Perl modules are being sought. The intention may be good, but the execution falls short of providing adequate information to make it easy for us to help.
As to your (anonymous) allegation re "lazy," are you unable or unwilling to distinguish between 'lazy' and 'a poor proof-reader of my own errors?'
In fact, and upon careful consideration, I should not have responded and, instead, honored the rule "Don't feed the trolls." Sorry about that, but not very sorry.
If you didn't program your executable by toggling in binary, it wasn't really programming!
