Hmmmm. When one computes the size of a program, does one also count the number of lines in the included modules?

I don't write many programs over 500 lines, but most of them use CGI and DBI (not to mention SQL) and are designed to provide quick, specific data extracted from a relational database.

Perl is extremely well qualified to take the hash returned by the db handler and format it for the World Wide Web.

But then I'm preaching to the choir, aren't I?

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.
