in reply to Perl Golf 101

This isn't meant as an exhaustive treatise on golfing, there are others much better at it than I. However, I was unable to find a good "howto" anywhere, and though I'd make a little one here. It's my hope that others better at this sport might share some tidbits of their own.

There used to be a nice and very extensive reference at http://terje2.perlgolf.org/~golf-info/Book.html, but the domain seems to have expired. I should have a local copy at home.

    < mtve> we with km forgot to pay for it in time, then it was freed and now it's taken away by those mo***s.

    From a conversation at #perlgolf, talking about perlgolf.org yesterday.

    Yes, in fact I specifically recall that exact URL when I was looking for hints and tips, but couldn't even convince google to spit out a cache. If you could post your local copy somewhere, that would be awesome, as a relative newcomer to golf, I know I'm already starting at a handicap. :)

      There might be another site that caches that sort of stuff - I'm trying to remember the URL tho. It's kind of an archive of pages/changes to sites over the years. If I come up with the site I'll post it and let you know (might be in my notes from a class I took a few years ago).

      Update: You might look at this site, It's an archive of internet sites over the years.
