It ranges widely through the Perl programmer's universe, gathering together in convenient form a wealth of information about Perl itself and its application to CGI scripts, network programming, database interaction, and graphical user interfaces. It also gives detailed coverage about using Perl within a Win32 environment. This book assembles more information about the language in one place than any other reference work. Here are just some of the topics covered in the book: Basic language reference Introduction to using Perl modules Perl and CGI: CGI basics, CGI.pm, mod_perl DBI, the database-independent API for Perl Sockets programming in Perl LWP, the library for World Wide Web programming in Perl The Net::* modules pTk, the Tk extension to Perl As part of the successful "in a Nutshell" series of books from O'Reilly & Associates, Perl in a Nutshell is for readers who want a single reference for all their needs.
