Dear Monks,
as a non-native english-speaker it's sometimes rather enervating to compose my hopefully fairly understandable posts to the PMs. Occasionally i am almost desparate while i'm assembling sentences like this one with the aid of my destop-dictionary. What a luck that i haven't to build them in realtime.
Even so there are two reasons for me to use english for my postings.
-
PerlMonks give me the opportunity the strengthen not only my perl- but also my english-skills.
-
The chance for a helpful answer is much more bigger if i don't restrict the crowd that is able to understand my question.
So i have to struggle with english in the future... :-)
greetings, tos

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.

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).

Want more info? How to link
or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
