Re-inventing wheels IS wrong...
Wheels IS the CONCEPT.
Re-inventing the PROCESS for to make BEST wheels is the correct.
Example:
- Concept
- Templating System for dynamic web pages
- Traditional solution
- Perl CGI scripts from server side, with modules for template systems.
- Re-inventing the solution: Rasmus Lerdorf, 1994
- Small set of Perl scripts, followed by a rewritten set of CGI binaries written in C in 1994 to display his résumé and to collect certain data, such as how much traffic his page was receiving. "Personal Home Page Tools" was publicly released on 8 June 1995 after Lerdorf combined it with his own Form Interpreter to create PHP.
We know the result...

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).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
