in reply to What would you put on a Perl mug?

I'd write:
man perl man perldoc perldoc -f <functioname> http://www.perlmonks.com http://www.perl.org http://www.cpan.org "Be consistant. Be nice." -- Larry Wall "Write for clarity first; let correctness follow naturally from clear +design and good testing. Make it right; then make it fast, if necessa +ry." -- Me
That's what I'd put on a Perl mug: some of the important things (IMHO) to know as a perl programmer. I'd spiral the text around the surface of the mug, in nice pretty fonts and colours. That's just what I'd do, though. I don't really like regexp syntax, or coffee for that matter, so maybe I'm the wrong one to ask.

    Make that:

    perldoc perl perldoc perldoc

    To be more consistent, and portable.

      *shrug*

      When I learned perl, perldoc didn't work on about half the systems I used it with. ( I don't remember why; lazy sysadmins, perhaps). The man pages always worked.

      Hence, the suggestions, by force of habbit.
